Community Public Safety Academy

The Community Public Safety Academy offers a comprehensive and immersive educational experience, designed to foster a deeper understanding of the critical facets of public safety and law enforcement. Over the course of several weeks, participants will engage in a series of interactive classes including topics such as criminal law, use of force, special events, and the Clery Act, gaining insights into the complex and dynamic world of community policing, emergency response, and law enforcement leadership. This course not only educates participants about the various aspects of public safety but also fosters community engagement and a deeper appreciation for the role of law enforcement in ensuring the safety and well-being of all community members. Join us on this transformative journey towards enhancing public safety and building stronger, safer communities. Pre-requisites: application and background check; must be 18 years of age.
