With a mission to build rapport between the Austin Police Department and the Hispanic community, Amigos en Azul was formed in 1982 by a handful of Hispanic officers. In 1992 Officer Joe A. Maciel established a scholarship program and most recently renamed it the Joe A Maciel Scholarship Program. Over the years the program has rewarded over $200,000.00 to graduating high school seniors wishing to pursue a higher education. We wish all applicants the best of luck in applying for our scholarship, as well as other endeavors.
