The Virginia Association of Chiefs of Police & Foundation (VACP), formed in 1926, is an incorporated 501(c)(3) non-profit trade association. Its more than 600 members are made up of active and retired federal, state, local, campus and private law enforcement and criminal justice agency executives, administrators and managers. Members also include persons in law enforcement related businesses, support industries or government agencies. The VACP has three classes of dues-paying membership — Active, Associate, and Senior. The VACP also has a small group of non-dues paying retired members (classified as "Honorary") who were grandfathered in following a 2004 Bylaws change when their membership class was eliminated. A ten-member Executive Board elected by the Active members governs the affairs of the VACP.The purpose of the VACP is "to promote the professional development of all executive and management personnel within duly constituted law enforcement agencies in the Commonwealth of Virginia; to encourage close cooperation of all law enforcement agencies in the prevention of crime, detection of crime and the apprehension of those responsible for the commission of crimes; to promote the highest standards of the police profession through selection and training of law enforcement officers and generally pledge and strive for the highest degree of respect for law and order throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia."
