Troopers Only is an unofficial community created to bring together sworn members of the Virginia State Police in a private, vetted environment. The purpose of this platform is to encourage meaningful dialogue, professional discussion, and the exchange of ideas among those who share the responsibility of public service.

Membership is limited to sworn Virginia State Police personnel and is subject to verification. This ensures that discussions take place among peers who understand the realities, challenges, and standards of the profession.

Troopers Only exists to promote constructive engagement. It is not a place for toxic behavior, hostility, or disrespect. Members are expected to participate professionally, communicate thoughtfully, and treat one another with the respect expected of sworn personnel.

With collective bargaining expected to be at the forefront of the 2026 Virginia General Assembly, there is a strong likelihood that sworn members will need a trusted space to come together, discuss emerging issues, and share perspectives. This platform was established well in advance of that moment to foster unity, open communication, and informed discussion among members before critical decisions and developments arise.

While Troopers Only is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Virginia State Police, it exists to support collaboration and dialogue within the sworn community. The goal is to provide a stable, respectful forum where members can engage openly, stay informed, and work toward shared understanding on matters that may affect the profession.

By participating in Troopers Only, members acknowledge these expectations and agree to uphold a standard of conduct consistent with professionalism, integrity, and mutual respect.
