Trooper Support
When an unexpected accident, tragedy, or natural disaster impacts one of our MSTA-member troopers, we’re there to offer assistance. Download and complete the Trooper Assistance Form and submit to an MSTA Board member along with appropriate documentation. MSTA is there for you!
Trooper of the Year Info
To honor a fellow trooper for service and deeds above and beyond the call of duty is a worthwhile recognition with this annual award program. When that honor is bestowed on a fellow MSTA Trooper by their peers, it encourages everyone to do more.
MSTA Scholarship Application
In an effort to encourage MSTA-member children to excel in their educational goals, we offer an annual scholarship award. Topics are chosen, and applicants write essays which are then graded by anonymous English teachers. The Mississippi Highway Patrol is typically the focus of essays.
