POLICE DEPARTMENT'S
CITIZENS POLICE ACADEMY
YOUTH PROGRAM
The Youth Citizens Police Academy (YCPA) is a police
department interactive program designed to educate young men and
women about its department policies, operational procedures, and
ways to reduce crime.
Graduates emerge with a new sense of understanding
for their police department, and will be able to share their education
and experiences with family, friends, and schoolmates.
Our goal is to educate and interact with the youth of our
community, thus enhancing the relationship between them and their
police officers.
