The Midlothian Police Department in Texas has opened up an opportunity for locals to learn more about the ins and outs of law enforcement through its Citizens Police Academy. According to a recent social media post, the department is preparing to host its 32nd session of the academy starting September 18, and is inviting citizens who reside, work, shop, or volunteer in Midlothian to sign up.
The upcoming academy sessions, which will be free of charge, are scheduled to take place on Thursday evenings from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm for ten weeks, culminating on December 4, with a brief hiatus for Thanksgiving. Designed to provide a comprehensive look into police work and the specific practices of the Midlothian Police Department, the program is reaching out to community members who are at least 16 years of age, the latter with the stipulation of parental authorization for participation.
Those interested in attending have been directed to complete the provided application and send it via email to Curtis Hughes at [email protected]. The application can be found on the department's official website, ensuring easy access for all those who wish to gain deeper knowledge and engage with local law enforcement on a new level.
