The E.S.F.L.E.A. was founded in New York City in 1995 by a group of USINS Inspectors with common interests... their heritage and their desire to improve the professionalism of their agency. Rebuffed by their agency, the E.S.F.L.E.A. founders decided to expand the scope of their fraternal and social organization by including all federal law enforcement agencies. In 1997, E.S.F.L.E.A. incorporated under Section 402 of the New York State Non-Profit Corporation Laws, and was soon after registered with the Internal Revenue Service and the New York State Department of Taxation as a tax-exempt organization. Soon after, E.S.F.L.E.A. was recognized and chartered by the National Conference of Law Enforcement Emerald Societies as the only nationwide organization of federal law enforcement and public safety personnel of Irish and Gaelic descent. Currently, the E.S.F.L.E.A. has hundreds of members across the U.S., in Canada, Europe, and Asia, working for or retired from over 30 Federal Agencies, and the U.S. Military. Annual membership fees are currently only $20, payable upon application and subsequently every January.
