CITIZEN'S POLICE ACADEMY

The Citizen’s Police Academy is a ten week program designed to provide adult citizens with a working knowledge of police responsibilities. The academy is modeled after the regular police academy that all officers must attend. The program is not intended to train police officers, but to familiarize citizens with the duties of their police department. The program involves a mix of lecture and hands-on training. Participants also take field trips to several county facilities such as the Dauphin County Emergency Management Agency, Dauphin County Prison, and the morgue.

The next Citizen’s Police Academy is tentatively scheduled to begin in March 2010.

Class size is limited to twenty students.  Applications are available online, at the Lower Paxton Twp. Police Dept. or you may request an application by mail.  If you have any questions, please contact Officer Ralph Palm or Officer John Stoner of the Community Policing Unit at 657-5656.
