Founded in 1970, The Police Benevolent and Protective Association (PBPA) Decatur Unit 39 consists of only full time and retired Police Officers of the Decatur IL Police. We currently have 212 members.

Our goal is to strengthen the bond between Police and the local Decatur/Macon Co community. We achieve this goal by supporting local youth events, community events, local church events, feeding the needy and shopping with families in need at Christmas Time.
