Wisconsin D.A.R.E. Officers Association

Wisconsin's kids deserve a familiar face they can trust.

D.A.R.E. Officers across Wisconsin walk into classrooms every week to help young people build confidence, make safe choices, and feel supported. We're the association behind them, and we'd love to have you with us.

69 agencies · 3 regions · officers from every corner of the state
