Presidents Message
Chief Terry Foster
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to welcome you to the Missouri Police Chiefs Association website. It is an honor to serve as the President of the Missouri Police Association and I am excited to continue working with this organization as we move through 2022. 2021 brought us many challenges for law enforcement across the nation and in our great State to say the least. But together we have faced those challenges and will continue to do so moving forward.
The Missouri Police Chiefs Association represents over 600 members throughout the State of Missouri and has done so since 1953. This Association is proud to serve all members of law enforcement in Missouri with training, information, professional opportunities, subject matter expertise, pro law enforcement legislative efforts, continuing education, command level training, legal defense, scholarships, and charitable activities, as well as promotional testing services. We look forward to the many challenges and opportunities we will face in the future as we serve our members. We are committed to represent you and your interest as we lead the way with professionalism and integrity. I look forward to working with all our law enforcement executives and partners as we serve the citizens of the State of Missouri.
