| Subject: | Resolution Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Pennsylvania Chiefs of Police Association |
In the near future, I plan to introduce a resolution commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Pennsylvania Chiefs of Police Association. As you may be aware, the present organization of the Pennsylvania Chiefs of Police Association is a reincarnation of a defunct predecessor originally established in 1894. Several years later, in June 1914, a meeting of the police heads from Pennsylvania was held, executive officers were elected, and the revamped association was reborn. Today, the association is a professional organization of chiefs of police and other executives of police, public safety, and private law enforcement organizations across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that provides a vehicle through which members can converge, examine their positions on issues, and address the needs of their colleagues. Additionally, the association prides itself on its core values which include accountability, continuous improvement, diversity, education and training, human life, innovation, the laws and Constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, problem-solving, compassion, cooperation, excellence, fairness, inclusion, integrity, personal autonomy, and professionalism. The association makes a positive impact on the quality of life in the communities which its members serve through pro-active leadership in the following: community partnerships, ethics and integrity, knowledge and information dissemination, promoting legislation which advances the mission of the association before the United States Congress and the Pennsylvania General Assembly, media relations, professional standards, vision, and innovative change. With this in mind, I urge you to please join me in the commemoration of this noteworthy milestone. Thank you! |
