Has anyone heard or participated in Harris Counties Citizens Police Academy? I'd like some feedback if you have please.
My neighborhood has taken a turn for the worse and is becomming more populated at a very fast rate. I'm not opposed to building bridges with the local LEOs to do my part and I think my neighborhood could use the face time with the local police to show we all aren't that bad.
I just hope it's a true two way street where they would listen to our concerns if I do end up in this class.
From the email:
Graduates of the CPA play a vital role in their communities by improving communication between citizens and law enforcement and by providing local input and support throughout the county. It is our hope that the graduates will become partners with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office in identifying problems and solutions to the crime issues that are affecting our communities. Graduates will gain knowledge that they can implement to enhance the quality of life in their respective neighborhoods.
Through this thirteen-week course, CPA participants learn many aspects of law enforcements, such as Texas Penal Code, Patrol Procedures, Gang Awareness, Terrorism, and many other topics. It is through this program that Harris County residents will gain a better understanding of how police services are conducted in their communities, and see “how and why” deputies make some of their decisions in the course of their duties.
