The International Association of Chiefs of Police, National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives, National Sheriffs’ Association, and Police Executive Research Forum make up LEITSC, also known simply as the Council. The Council consists of 10 people: each organization contributes one member and one staff liaison, and a project support specialist and the project manager round out the group. Together, these participants represent the law enforcement community as a whole on issues related to information technology (IT) standards.
