History
The Florida Police Chief was an award-winning magazine published monthly by the Florida
Police Chiefs Association. Established in 1961, The Florida Police Chief, now a quarterly NewsLetter, keeps members
abreast of current Association news. It also informs and educates readers about police and
crime issues and trends, innovative management, liabilities, and the latest in police
products, services and equipment. Updates on the latest legislative issues are also included. The Florida Police
Chief's feature articles are first-rate stories written by top law
enforcement officials in Florida.
With an average quarterly publication circulation of 1,000, The Florida Police Chief is distributed to
administrators and purchasing agents from nearly all of Florida's municipal, county,
state, and federal law enforcement agencies.
 The Florida Magazine Association (FMA),
which promotes professionalism and quality in
Florida's publishing industry, recognized The Florida Police Chief in 1991 and 1992 for
superior achievement. The Florida Police Chief received a Charlie Award from the FMA
for Best Illustration in Association Journals in 1991. Then in 1992, in competition with
other association, institutional and foundation publications, the FMA again recognized
The Florida Police Chief with a Bronze Award of Excellence for the Best In-Depth
reporting. The "Charlie Award" for Best Feature in an
Association Journal was for an article entitled, "That Looming Reporter/Coping With A
Cantankerous Press," and was written by Chief Melvin Tucker of the Tallahassee Police Department
and media consultant Bill Fuller.
The Florida Police Chief is continually striving for excellence in writing and design to
provide its readers with the highest quality NewsLetter. Get the most out of your advertising
