Citizens' Police Academy
The next Deerfield Citizens’ Police Academy session will be held this winter, starting in January of 2013, meeting once a week from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. The Academy will be held at the Deerfield Police Station located at 850 Waukegan Road.
The two hour Academy sessions cover a variety of subjects ranging from basic law enforcement and its role in the community to discussions and demonstrations with specialized units within the Deerfield Police Department including: SWAT, Mobile Field Force, Drug Suppression Unit, Traffic Unit, Crime Prevention Unit, Investigations, Major Crimes Task Force, Youth and Social Services Division, and the 9-1-1 Center. Each session will have hands on activities such as fingerprinting and use of less-than-lethal weapons. During each session, you will be able to ask questions and interact with police officers and Academy instructors.
Academy enrollment is limited. Citizens’ Police Academy Application forms are available at the Deerfield Police Department at 850 Waukegan Road as well as on the Village website. We accept applications throughout the year. In weeks prior to the Academy start date, the Academy coordinator, Sgt. Christopher Fry, will contact you to confirm your selection to participate in the next Academy.
