The Inland Empire Emerald Society was founded in March of 2006. IEES is incorporated in the State of California as a non-profit organization. The primary objective of the Society is to provide immediate financial support to the families of Inland Empire law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty, as well as supporting the local, state and national memorials and to foster goodwill among members of the numerous law enforcement communities in Southern California and to celebrate the accomplishments and dedication of Irish-American peace officers. On May 14, 2006, the Inland Empire Emerald Society became the 76th Chapter of the National Conference of Law Enforcement Emerald Societies headquartered in Washington D.C.
Emerald societies across the nation support the National Law Enforcement Memorial and their local and state memorials. Annually, emerald societies gather during National Police Week in Washington D.C. to honor their fallen brothers and sisters in law enforcement. Pipers from across the nation gather to play and officers march to the memorial. Emerald societies assist with the Candlelight Ceremonies and with the organization of the week’s activities. This is truly an event an officer should attend at least once in his or her career.
