Vision. Leadership. Excellence.

Those words define the philosophy of the Virginia Police Chiefs Foundation. The foundation's Board of Directors is committed to a far-reaching vision that embraces leadership-skill development and education for law enforcement, business executives, and today's youth. Effective leaders aren't born, they are cultivated.

The board embraces excellence: Excellence in the command staffs that operate our police departments; excellence in the youth who will lead our country tomorrow; excellence in the community. We support excellence not only in providing education programs, but by awarding scholarships to further those educational opportunities. And we celebrate excellence exhibited by corporations and community groups who support the foundation's activities and community-outreach programs.
