Operations-Central Bureau
Community Police Academy for Adults
by Sergeant
Daryl M. Russell
EDITOR'S NOTE: We cannot stress the relevance and importance
of attending the Community Police Academy to anyone interested
in
LA Community Policing. Several of our volunteers have graduated
from these wonderful courses.
LACP's Bobbie Logan and Everett Littlefield both attended last
year's adult class, and Bobbie wrote an article about her experience: Community
Police Academy, 2002
Although the next class offered is for adults,
and in English, Operations Central Bureau also conducts versions
for youth and in Spanish.
Please feel free to contact Sergeant
Russell ( 213 / 485-2651 ) at any time for more information.
