Deadline to Apply September 13
Yeadon Police Department proudly announces its Second Annual Citizens Police Academy (following the cancelled 2020 program). The program will run seven weeks, beginning September 29, 2021, and ending with a graduation at a November 2021 Council Meeting.
Classes will be held at Yeadon Borough Hall, every Wednesday from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm unless otherwise noted in the full schedule. The academy is free, and class size is limited to 20 residents of Yeadon. Area residents’ applications will be considered based on available seating.
The Yeadon Citizens Police Academy will create a challenging atmosphere, and provide residents/cadets with an inside look at what it takes to be a police officer. This program will create confidence, self-discipline, physical security and fitness awareness, and foster team-building mindsets, while bringing you into the world of policing. Instructors are police officers with a strong desire to open lines of communication with those we swear to protect and serve, to create positive police and public interactions, so that a deeper understanding of policing can serve to foster a stronger bond with citizens and their police officers.
Applications must be submitted by Monday, September 13, 2021 for consideration.
Applications may be submitted via email to apaparo@yeadonpd.org or drop off your application in person to Yeadon Borough Police HQ at Church Lane and Baily Road, Yeadon, PA 19050.
Questions about the program? Please contact Chief Paparo at 610-623-7611.
