VPSF Board of Directors

Leadership of the Virginia Public Safety Foundation is provided by Directors who are selected from Virginia's public safety community, government, and business chamber. Special attention is paid to recruiting a Board that represents Virginia's diverse population and geographic regions.

A President chairs the Board of Directors. Special regard is given to the Past President and Vice President who, along with the President, form the three-person Executive Committee. The Executive Committee is charged with making management decisions that are necessary between quarterly meetings of the full Board of Directors.

Members of the VPSF Board are required to participate in quarterly board meetings where strategic decisions are made on budgets, programs and public relations.

The VPSF takes great pride in its active board of Virginia leaders.
