The History of MAMLEO
The Massachusetts Association of Minority Law Enforcement Officers (MAMLEO) was founded in 1968 in Boston by a group of Black police officers from the Boston and Metropolitan District Commission Police Departments. The organization’s original name was the Massachusetts Association of Afro-American Police (MAAAP). It was renamed MAMLEO in 1983 to better reflect the multiculturalism of its membership.
MAAAP was founded in response to the lack of minority representation in law enforcement in Massachusetts. At the time, there were very few Black and Hispanic police officers in the state. MAAAP’s mission was to increase minority hiring in law enforcement and to improve relations between police officers and the communities they serve.
The organization’s early years were marked by challenges. MAAAP faced resistance from the Boston Police Department, which did not want to see an increase in minority hiring. Despite these challenges, MAAAP persevered. The organization continued to advocate for minority hiring and to improve relations between police officers and the community.
In the years since its founding, MAMLEO has made significant progress in achieving its goals. The organization has helped to increase minority hiring in law enforcement in Massachusetts, and it has played a key role in improving relations between police officers and the communities they serve. MAMLEO has also provided a variety of services to the community, including youth programs, job training, and legal assistance.
Today, MAMLEO is a respected organization that is known for its commitment to diversity and inclusion in law enforcement. The organization continues to advocate for minority hiring and to improve relations between police officers and the community. MAMLEO is a valuable resource for minority law enforcement officers in Massachusetts, and it plays an important role in building a more just and equitable criminal justice system.
