Members of the Upper Providence Township Police department joined together in forming a police association in 2006.

Elected officers of the UPTPA are:
- Sgt. Mark Freeman, President
- Officer Mark Minnick, Vice President
- Officer Raymond Bechtel III, Secretary
- Officer Jeffrey Hilt, Treasurer
The UPTPA works with township officials and the Board of Supervisors to make Upper Providence Township a safe place to live. Any suggestions or donations for the UPTPA may be sent to the following:

Based on four months of fundraising research, the UPTPA has recently signed a contract with a marketing firm out of Philadelphia called The Empire Group. The solicitation will most likely be starting the week of May 1, 2007 .
The UPTPA is also now registered with the Bureau of Charitable Organizations. If you are considering a donation and would like to speak with a member of the UPTPA, please call 610-960-0778 . You may also send an email to UPTPA@comcast.net or write to us at P.O. Box 391 , Oaks, PA 19456.
