California Police Chief- Fall 2013 | Page 4

WELCOME FROM CHIEF BOYD Dear CPCA Members: Welcome to the Fall 2014 edition of our magazine, California Police Chief. This is the third edition of our rebranded, reengineered magazine designed to keep you up-to-date on relevant, innovative programs as well as association activities. Our magazine highlights some great successes our members have had with new programs which can serve to inspire other agencies. Cal Chiefs just wrapped-up a challenging legislative year having sponsored four major bills. Fortunately, we have a strong Legislative Team including an involved Legislative Committee well-engaged at the Capitol. Highlights of our recent efforts are detailed in our “Cal Chiefs at the Capitol” column. Also featured in this edition are articles by our Strategic Partners, and a listing of our partners and Corporate Circle Members. We hope you enjoy this third issue of our newly revised magazine and encourage you to follow Cal Chiefs on Facebook and Twitter; your feedback is always welcome. Thank you for the critical role you play in making Cal Chiefs the voice of and resource of choice for California’s municipal police chiefs. Sincerely, Christopher Boyd, President California Police Chiefs Association 4 California Police Chief | www.californiapolicechiefs.org
