City of Elmhurst Police Department issued the following announcement on Feb. 20.
The Elmhurst Citizen's Police Academy will be starting a new Spring 2019 session on Wednesday, March 13 through May 29.
The Citizen’s Police Academy is a 12-week program designed to give Elmhurst residents a behind-the-scenes look at their police department and a general overview of basic law enforcement practices. The program provides participants with a better understanding of some of the challenges faced by police officers in the field as well as insight into how and why situations might be resolved in a particular manner. Many of the classes offer opportunities for hands-on participation with actual police equipment and training procedures.
Each weekly block of instruction is held from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on consecutive Wednesday evenings. The next session will begin on Wednesday, March 13th and continue through May 29, 2019.
