The Clearwater Blue Foundation promotes the positive image of law enforcement in Pinellas County and enhances the quality of life in our communities by helping police officers in need as well as providing resources for training, education and equipment to facilitate the pursuit of professional excellence in law enforcement.

Our vision is to positively transform policing through a focus on three strategic priorities: Education & Training, Leadership, and Wellness. We believe that effective, evidence-based training equips officers with the skills and confidence needed for safety and service. By promoting strong leadership and holistic wellness, we aim to build resilient officers, supportive families, and healthy police organizations that serve their communities well.

Goal One: Disaster relief efforts for first responders align with our strategic goals by supporting their wellbeing. In line with our Wellness priority, these efforts ensure first responders, and their families recover and stay resilient. Immediate assistance strengthens their ability to lead effectively in emergencies, supporting our Leadership goal of empowering officers to handle complex challenges.

Goal Two: Expanding our Jiu Jitsu program to all first responders aligns with our strategic priorities by enhancing wellness, leadership, and training. It improves physical fitness and mental resilience, provides practical skill-building for safety and de-escalation and fosters teamwork and leadership in high-pressure situations, strengthening overall community service.

Goal Three: Our goal is to promote awareness of the vital role police officers, and their families play in community wellbeing. We will advocate for increased support, resources, and recognition of first responders through strategic partnerships, public outreach, and policy engagement, ensuring the importance of wellness, training, and leadership development is elevated and sustained.
