The Police Pensioners Association of Ontario was formed on July 15, 1997. The purpose of the organization is to represent Police Pensioners in the province in matters of concern on a Federal and Provincial level.

The Association is made up of local Police Pensioner Associations in Ontario, but we do accept individual members where there is not a local pensioner association. In 2004 we had a membership of 4,052 in 13 local associations. Membership dues are set at $3.00 per local Police Pensioner Association member with a maximum of $2,000.00 per association per year. Individual membership is $5.00 per year.

Groups of local pensioners that wish assistance in forming a local pensioner association may contact one of the Directors listed below.

The Board of Directors of the PPAO is as follows:
