The Beverly Hills Police Department is accepting applications for the Citizen Police Academy, a free program open to members of the Beverly Hills community who are interested in gaining hands-on experience and engaging with the police department in day-to-day duties. The program was created in 2015 with the hopes of bridging the gap between BHPD and the community through education and the opportunity to work alongside one another. Applications for the Fall 2024 class are open until Aug. 13.
Lieutenant Andrew Myers announced that the application process has begun at the July 22 Health and Safety Commission meeting. “If you’re interested in joining us for a program that’s both interesting and challenging, we hope to see your application for the Citizen Police Academy,” he said.
