WOODSTOCK - Woodstock Police are looking for a few good men and women for the Citizens Police Academy.
The academy has lasted for 9 years now, since 2001 with 125 citizens participating. The program has seen 7 individuals done so well and join the service as a Constable or in the Auxiliary Police Unit. Community Service Officer, Shaylyn Jackson has more on the academy.
"Officers that specialize here that have specific training, will get the chance to teach them firearms, use of force, our Auxiliary Containment."
Jackson also said it gives the community good insight to the field.
"We offer the Citizens Police Academy to community members within the city of Woodstock to learn more on what it is that our service has to offer and all of the different departments we have here."
Participants will get a look at these sections below:
- Uniform Patrol
- Criminal Investigation Bureau and Intelligence
