The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is conducting its Spanish Language Regional Community Academy. Designed to foster a better understanding between law enforcement and the communities we serve, the program is open to all residents who live or work in the communities served by Industry, Walnut, Lakewood, Norwalk and Pico Rivera Sheriff's Stations, and is specifically structured for Spanish-speaking members of the public. Participants will be introduced to actual field activities and classroom instruction received by deputy sheriffs, including criminal law, firearms familiarization, internal investigations, patrol procedures and gang enforcement. The program includes tours of Sheriff's facilities such as the Weapons Training Center, Twin Towers Correctional Facility, and the Communications Center. Participants of the Regional Community Academy will appreciate the quality of training that deputies receive, and improve their understanding of the issues deputies confront daily.
Class size is limited.
