The NAVCOPS Network is a social community for those in naval law enforcement to network with each other. It is NOT government or military owned/operated.

Helping You Connect
We provide two community experiences. Our secure site is available for active/reserve military in law enforcement and ATFP roles. We also have public discussion boards where you can talk and have fun with others in the community. Both are free to join/use separately or together.
1.
Secure Site
Our Law Enforcement secure community is found on the FBI’s JusticeConnect via LEEP (to join for free: https://www.cjis.gov). Our Community of Interest (COI) on JusticeConnect allows you to network, discuss (message board), and share information (up to unclassified/law enforcement sensitive). Available to active duty military or law enforcement only.

Discussions & Community
An important and fun part of our community is discussions! Join our public Discord server to engage in a variety of public discussions. Find old shipmates, mentor others, discuss topics, etc. It’s all there just like our old discussion boards which had thousands of threads. Discord is brand new as of June of 2023. For law enforcement sensitive/confidential discussions please use our secure site (FBI JusticeConnect COI).
3.
Knowledge Sharing
There is a lot to learn and know, and one way is from those with years of experience! Use our JusticeConnect COI’s new knowledge base to find (and share!) a variety of information contributed by members, and other information in one central spot. This doesn’t replace any official materials you have but aspires to provide a way to unofficially pass along knowledge and lessons learned.
4.
Support & Guidance
Our secure site on FBI JusticeConnect provides a way to securely share knowledge, files, links, training, in one location. You can also use our Discord server with its public discussion channels to share unrestricted/public information.
