Citizen's Police Academy

   

During the past year, the McHenry Police Department hosted two sessions of the Citizens Police Academy. The Academy gives civilians the opportunity through classroom participation, practical exercises and ride-a-longs, to experience some of the training that our officers must go through in order to become certified. It also allows the average citizen to see first hand what today’s police officer can expect to deal with on a daily basis. Graduating students are so impressed with the academy, that they have formed an alumni association. The alumni association has helped the department in such ways as raising funds for equipment and by volunteering at various functions such as the Soap Box Derby.
