Our Goal
At VACAP, our vision is to assist, empower, and collaborate with law enforcement agencies, public safety communications centers, training academies, and campus security services, enabling them to achieve their highest potential. We advocate for accreditation through the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA) as a means to enhance professionalism and reach the gold standard of public safety.
Our goal is to ensure that member agencies are well-informed about the accreditation process and equipped to achieve and maintain accredited status. Our informational network for member agencies pursuing or maintaining programs established by CALEA promote communication, cooperation, resource sharing, and facilitate training and other forms of support. Our organization comprises experienced professionals dedicated to assisting others in reaching their accreditation objectives.
