The Kannapolis Police Department is hosting its annual Citizens' Academy this spring. The program is designed to give the public a deeper understanding of local law enforcement. It will run from March 13 to May 22, with weekly classes every Thursday from 6 to 9 p.m., as listed on the City of Kannapolis website.
The academy will cover various law enforcement topics, including traffic enforcement, defensive driving, and interactions with the courts. The sessions will be led by police officers. The academy is primarily open to Kannapolis residents. The program offers insight into police procedures and aims to build a stronger connection within the community. Participants will learn about various aspects of policing, including K-9 operations, firearms handling, and felony investigations.
The academy is free, but space is limited, so early applications are encouraged. More information and application details are available on the Kannapolis City website.
