KCPD taking applications for citizen police academy

The Citizen Police Academy (CPA) was first introduced in Kansas City in 1998 in order to educate Kansas City residents about the structure and activities of their police department. While the CPA class is not a "training class", this 10 week course is an exciting opportunity to gather information while providing a behind-the-scenes look at the various functions within the Kansas City Missouri Police Department.

Our program operates on the premise that informed educated citizens will be more supportive of police officers and the department. Additionally, those completing the program have the potential of becoming more productive within their own neighborhoods and communities.
