VACP’s New Chief Mentorship Program connects first-time police chiefs with experienced leaders in eight core areas of the job. For each new chief, VACP assigns one mentor per area. As a mentor, you’ll be asked for one scheduled 45–60 minute meeting with that chief, in person, by video or by phone. After that, we ask that you stay available as a resource if the chief reaches out later. We’re looking for active and retired chiefs and other executives who can mentor in the areas they know best. VACP handles all matching and scheduling.
