Chairman's Message

On behalf of the board and staff of the IACP Foundation, welcome to our site and thank you for taking the time to learn more about how the foundation is actively at work for you and your agency. 

The Foundation's primary goal is "the advancement of professional policing."  To me, advancement means always moving forward, always learning, and always looking for the next challenge in your career.  At the IACP Foundation we have worked diligently to ensure that the programs and initiatives we fund truly address your needs and the needs of police agencies across the globe. 

We are dedicated to answering the call of active law enforcement for training, professional development, and support for the families of fallen colleagues. 

I encourage you to contact the IACP Foundation to learn more about what we are doing to constantly refine our response to the demanding, but equally rewarding, profession of policing.

Sincerely yours,

Chief Russell B. Laine
IACP Immediate Past President & IACP Foundation Chair
