Tennessee Constables’ Association

 Commendation Bar Program

The Tennessee Constables’ Association Commendation Bar Program is a nominations-based program designed to recognize the law enforcement service of Constable members of the Tennessee Constables’ Association. Nominations can be made by fellow Constables and any member of the public. The TCA Review Board will review the submissions and make recommendations to the Executive Director. Each year, the commendation recipients will be honored at the annual awards banquet.

The nominated Constable must be a current member of the TCA and the event must have happened while the person is/was serving as Constable in order to be eligible. Facts and any proof surrounding the event should be provided by the person submitting the form.
