ABOUT THE CITIZENS POLICE ACADEMY
The Citizens Police Academy (CPA), which began in 1994, is an interactive program, designed to educate the public about the Honolulu Police Department (HPD), Its policies and operational procedures, the criminal justice system, and ways to reduce crime. The CPA allows members of the HPD and citizens of the City and County of Honolulu to meet, share ideas and information, and interact in a very positive and proactive setting.
12 weeks of courses designed to familiarize participants with the many different aspects of police work. Participants who graduate the CPA will be better-informed citizens who will be able to share their education and experiences with family, friends, and co-workers.
Graduates of the CPA represent a diverse cross section of our community. Personnel from the Department of Education, businesspersons, retired persons, media personnel, government representatives, community officials as well as the general public have attended CPA.
