The Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office is currently inviting applications for its upcoming Citizen’s Police Academy, a comprehensive 12-week program set to commence on May 6th at 6 PM. This educational course will delve into various crucial topics, including insights into the judicial system, the role of K-9 units, drug investigations, and more.
Prospective applicants are required to meet certain criteria to be eligible for the program. Individuals must be at least 18 years old, residents of Lawrence County, possess a valid driver’s license, and have no prior criminal record or pending criminal charges. Those interested in participating can obtain application forms directly from the Lawrence County Sheriff’s Department.
Given the limited availability of spots, interested individuals are encouraged to apply promptly. The deadline for submitting applications is April 30th. This initiative presents a valuable opportunity for community members to gain a deeper understanding of law enforcement practices and procedures, fostering a closer relationship between the sheriff’s office and the local residents.
