The Nebraska State Patrol

Serving Nebraska since 1937, the Nebraska State Patrol (NSP) is committed to professional public service reflecting recognition of the inherent value of each individual in our society.

To this end we pledge ourselves to the highest standards of morality, fairness, honesty, dedication, professionalism and courage.
