Al Eskanazy
Founder, President, CEO
In January of 2018, Al Eskanazy founded the Community-Police Relations Foundation (a 501(c)(3) charity born out of the urgent need to improve relations between law enforcement and the communities they serve. The CPR Foundation works to bridge the gap between both sides by building trust and mutual understanding. Its programs promote positive interactions between law enforcement and the community through initiatives such as providing food in underserved neighborhoods, youth mentorship, police officers' participation in youth sports, mental health support for law enforcement, and supporting the fight against human trafficking.
Al’s commitment to community includes his leadership on various boards, advisory groups, and committees. Since 1998, he has served as Founding President and Chair of Ascent, a school for individuals with Autism, which was named a “model program for the education of children diagnosed with Autism.”
His selfless charitable efforts have earned him numerous awards and recognitions including:
Induction into the Long Island Volunteer Hall of Fame
Man of the Year by the Nassau County Police Department Explorers Program
Zenith Award from the International Council of Women in Law Enforcement
Citizen of the Year by the South Florida Police Benevolent Association
Law Enforcement Guardian Philanthropist by the National Latino Police Officers Association

More recently, in recognition of his ongoing contributions, Al was awarded a Doctorate of Humanities by the God Ministries Alliance and Seminary in 2024. In 2025, he received the Healthcare Champion Behavioral Award from the South Florida Hispanic Chamber of Commerce for his efforts supporting law enforcement mental health.

Al retired in 2016 after leading the sale of Morstan to Brown & Brown (Hull & Company)- a New York Stock Exchange publicly traded company.
Upon Al’s retirement from the insurance industry, he immersed himself in public service, becoming a Certified Peace Officer in the Division of Criminal Justice Services of New York State. Al currently serves as a Detective in the Nassau County SPCA Criminal Abuse section. His public service also includes having served in the U.S. Army Reserves from 1969 to 1974.
