Citizen Police Academy
The Citizen Police Academy is an eight week seminar held semi-annually to orientate, educate, and communicate with citizens and members of the business community on the operations of the Jupiter Police Department.
The dates for the 20th Citizens Police Academy have been announced. This academy will begin on January 20, 2009 and continue through March 10, 2009.
The Junior Police Academy is a two week summer program designed for children (ages 9-12). Through classroom discussions, student activities and cadet handouts, the students will develop a deeper appreciation of law enforcement, while opening the door to better communication between officers and students.
