AP is a family-owned, values-driven company known for safety, strong partner relationships, integrity and operational excellence. We set a high bar for service and keeping our promises – and our clients trust us to deliver. Together we are making a measurable, positive impact in the communities where we live and work.
The House of Shields is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was founded in 2008. The House of Shields provides FREE lodging for Police Officers (active or retired) and members of their immediate family. We are based in Rochester, MN which is home to Mayo Clinic, the best rated hospital in the country. Unfortunately, our law enforcement families aren't immune to medical tragedies that require the best care possible. We can't fix their medical concerns but we can try to alleviate some of the their financial burden. This organization is run by volunteers and funded by donations.
Help Our Cause
We can't continue to operate without the generous donations of our supporters. Please consider donating so that we can continue to help our law enforcement family.
Hotel partnership
We have partnered with Centerstone Plaza Hotel to provide a reduced rate for our guests.
We are often fully booked and need to turn guests away. Due to this we have partnered with Centerstone Plaza Hotel to provide our guests a reduced cost stay located directly across the street from our apartments. Please call the House of Shields to verify your credentials and receive the discount code.
Located on the outer edge of historic downtown Rochester, we’re just two minutes away from Mayo Clinic Rochester and St. Marys Hospital. Our Express Courtesy Shuttle will drive you to Mayo Clinic Rochester and many popular local destinations.
