The IAWP was founded in 1915 in Los Angeles, California, U.S.A.  In 1962, the IAWP began holding Annual Training Conferences.  Today this growing group of law-enforcement officers works together and strives to:

• Increase professionalism in police work
• Further the utilization of women in law enforcement/police service
• Provide a forum for sharing developments in police administration

• ACTIVE Membership -  All law enforcement officers with the power of arrest, who are/were full time officers, are eligible for active membership in the Association. Members in good standing, after retirement from active duty, have the privilege of continuing as active members by payment of annual dues. This shall include those active members who have met these criteria and are now job sharing.
  
•  LIFE Membership - Available to already active membership in IAWP upon payment of the fee for a Life Membership.
  
• ASSOCIATE Membership - All others in law enforcement/criminal justice or any person who by training, experience or other professional attainments in law enforcement work, as determined by the Membership Committee, including persons employed as reserve officers, seasonal officers, and those privately employed as security officers, and those individuals who actively promote and support women within law enforcement through training, development or representation, may become associate members of this Association.  
  
• CORPORATE Membership - Any proprietorship, partnership, firm or corporation that sells products or provides services of interest to law enforcement/criminal justice is eligible to become a corporate member of this Association.  
  
• SUSTAINING Membership - Any individual interested in fostering the aims and objectives of this Association may, upon an annual monetary contribution, become a sustaining member.
