ABOUT THE HR218 COMPLETE COVERAGE PLAN

NOTE: The states of New Jersey (NJ) and Washington (WA) do not allow coverage for self-defense incidents. Residents from these states cannot purchase this plan. Active and retired law enforcement officers in the state of New York (NY), however, are eligible for the plan.

The CCW Safe HR218 plan was developed specifically for active, retired and former law enforcement officers who meet the requirements for the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA), also known as HR218. (See the full list of requirements below.) Membership in this plan includes our challenge coin and membership card.

Covered under the HR218 plan is any criminal, civil or administrative legal action stemming from a self-defense incident. (Important: This relates to OFF-DUTY incidents only.) This plan is non-transferrable. Security or other secondary jobs are not protected under this plan. Eligibility under LEOSA is contingent upon submission of proof of retirement or appropriate former agency identification to support@ccwsafe.com.

The Primary member will be protected under the HR218 plan for any legal use of force responses to life-threatening attacks at home, inside their vehicle, at any place where it is legal to carry a concealed weapon in public (including locations applicable under HR218 or where permits are honored), or on premises where firearm possession is not illegal (all legal weapons covered).

The CCW Safe HR218 plan ensures coverage of all legal fees upfront with no limits or caps; bond coverage up to $1 million; and additional, dedicated $1 million civil liability coverage for the Primary member only.

A spouse and all children under the age of 18 years, living in the residence of the primary member and not legally prohibited from possessing a firearm, are protected under the plan at no additional cost for incidents occurring within the residence only, in all states except NJ, NY, and WA. Family members are covered to a $250,000 bond level.

Add-ons are available for purchase with the CCW Safe HR218 plan after eligibility and membership are confirmed. Additional protection offered includes adding a spouse possessing a permit to be covered outside the home, increasing bond coverage for a spouse, and provision of civil liability coverage for a spouse, except in NJ, NY, and WA.

No additional discounts can be applied to this specially priced plan, and purchase of the CCW Safe HR218 plan is permitted on an annual basis only. Before applying for membership, individuals should be prepared to submit proof of being an active or retired law enforcement officer to support@ccwsafe.com, familiarize themselves thoroughly with their state's regulations governing concealed carrying permits, and review the CCW Safe HR218 plan restrictions detailed below.

The Buyer acknowledges that they are not a prohibited person and meet the criteria detailed below to carry under HR218. Misrepresentation on the part of a person prohibited from carrying a concealed weapon or violating any state or federal law barring their possession of a firearm, will result in their membership being forfeited with no refund of prior payments to CCW Safe. If they are subsequently found ineligible for HR218, the subscription will be changed to the appropriate non-discounted plan and the price difference charged accordingly.

Coverage outside the home and civil liability protection for your spouse are not included and may be added during checkout if desired. Additional bond coverage for a spouse can also be added at this time.

Requirements for HR218:

Active and retired law enforcement officers qualify for HR218. According to the wording of HR218, the Law Enforcement Officers' Safety Act, signed into law by President George W. Bush on July 22, 2004, "qualified retired law enforcement officer" is defined as an individual who:

Has separated from service in good standing with a government agency as a law enforcement officer for an aggregate of ten (10) years or more or separated from such an agency due to a service-connected disability after completing any applicable probationary period of such service.
Was authorized by law to engage in or supervise the prevention, detection, investigation, prosecution or the incarceration of any person for any violation of law.
Had statutory powers of arrest or apprehension under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
Is not under the influence of alcohol or another intoxicating or hallucinatory drug or substance; and is not prohibited by Federal law from possessing a firearm.

In addition to carrying the photographic identification issued by the agency for which they were employed or were separated, the qualified retired law enforcement officer must also carry documentation which certifies that they have met, within the most recent twelve-month period, the active duty law enforcement standards for qualification for a firearm of the same type as the one they intend to carry.
