The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is conducting its second Regional Community Academy. Designed to foster a better understanding between law enforcement and the communities we serve, the Academy is open to all residents who live or work in the communities served by Industry, Lakewood, Norwalk, Pico Rivera, San Dimas and Walnut Stations. 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, Sybil Brand Institute for Women, 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.
