Houston Citizens' Police Academy
Would you like to get the inside poop on HPD? Then sign up for the next Houston Citizens' Police Academy:
What is it?
The Houston Citizens' Police Academy presents a look at the internal operations, values, and philosophy of the Houston Police Department. The Academy is a 33 - hour block of instruction designed to give the public a working knowledge of the "how's and why's" of the department, and the citizens' role in their interaction with the police. If you choose to participate you will attend a series of classes, held once each week for three hours. The instruction is comprehensive, covering a different area of the police department each week. Officers, supervisors and personnel assigned to that particular division conduct each instructional block.The Objective
The Houston Citizens' Police Academy was created to provide enough information to the citizens who attend so they may make informed judgments about the police department and police activity. Students are expected to share this realistic view of the department with other citizens to improve the efficiency of law enforcement in their neighborhoods. The department, in turn, becomes more aware of the feelings and concerns of the community from the participant's interaction and input. It is a two-way learning experience.
The next session begins September 7th.
