Strengthening Marriages. Strengthening Officers.
CIPF to Sponsor 2026 Bless the Badge Marriage Retreat
Law enforcement is more than a profession — it’s a calling. But the demands of the job don’t stay at work. Long hours, hypervigilance, stress, trauma exposure, and unpredictable schedules can take a toll on even the strongest marriages.
That’s why the Central Indiana Police Foundation is proud to sponsor the 2026 Indianapolis Bless the Badge Marriage Retreat.
