Elks Lodge 2 Pythian Drive, Edgewater, MD

On behalf of the Maryland State Police Alumni Association, Frances Campbell is awarded the MSPAA Civilian of the Year 2024.
The civilian employees are the backbone of the department. This employee has been recognized for outstanding performance by professional management & organizational skills, critical thinking, and leadership. She is often the eyes and ears of critical issues that faces the department on a daily basis. Within minutes, events around our state and nation can change.
In March 2024, The Frances Scott Key Bridge was struck and collapsed leading to a lengthy work relocation of many of the MSP executives. Realizing the importance of maintaining consistency and stability for the Department, Mrs. Campbell diligently worked to ensure all normal business on the executive floor was achieved without a hiccup.
Mrs. Campbell often takes on projects simply to ensure that the Department is successful.
Her mature, calm sense of knowing what to do, who to contact, and get the MSP motor rolling is imperative in the success of all missions. Frances Campbell, you may not wear a uniform, but you do have a cape. And you are “Maryland’s Finest.”
The nominees were evaluated on merit-based scoring, including dedication, confidence, reliability, teamwork, independence, leadership, interpersonal communications, self-awareness, critical thinking, and integrity. We are honored to recognize the hard work that all our nominees did over the past year as they each helped support the mission of the Maryland State Police and the Troopers who contact the citizens of Maryland and those who visit the great state. Our nominee pool consisted of employees who provided the infrastructure needed by our front-line members. The behind-the-scenes approach to being a part of “Maryland’s Finest” was brought to the forefront of professionalism, and all applicants exemplified dedication to the community and its citizens.
The MSPAA Civilian of the Year is selected by the Alumni’s Civilian of the Year Committee, which comprises a cross-section of active and retired employees, both sworn and civilian, and encompassed all facets of employment by the Maryland State Police.
