2014 RPD Citizens Academy applications are being accepted.

If you are like most folks, you probably haven’t had the occasion to learn much about the workings of your police department, the criminal justice system, or the emergency response system in your community. For Richland citizens, your police department offers an annual twelve-session Citizens’ Police Academy which runs January 7th through March 25th. The Academy classes are held Tuesday night of each week, and one Saturday session toward the end of the Academy. Attendance is limited; priority attendance will be given to current Richland residents and those who have not attended before. Richland PD's Citizen's Academy schedule has been determined and we are now accepting applications for the 2014 session. Applications will be accepted until the class is full. A background check is required. Applications may be mailed, or dropped off at the station. The mailing address is Richland PD, Attn. Ofc. Kane, 871 GEO WA Way, PO BOX 190, MS-17, Richland, WA 99352. If you have any questions do not hesitate to call Ofc. Kane at 509-942-7636.
