The Nacogdoches Police Department will host the 15th session of the Citizens’ Police Academy this fall.
The Academy is a twelve week program designed to educate citizens about the Nacogdoches Police Department and law enforcement.
“The program takes an in-depth look into law enforcement, and specifically the policies and procedures of the Nacogdoches Police Department”, said Sgt. Greg Sowell, who serves as the coordinator for the program. “It is designed to educate citizens on why we make certain decisions or handle situations in a particular way”.
The program begins on September 6th with graduation scheduled for November 22nd. Classes will be held at the police department from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. each Tuesday night. There is no cost to attend.
