“Chances are someone you know has recommended the Citizens Police Academy. They have probably told you how interesting it is, and that you will have a lot of fun! It is absolutely true!”

The Pembroke Pines Police Department has a commitment to foster an active partnership with the community.

Critical to the success of this partnership are well-informed citizens who have an awareness of the mission, resources and service of their police department. To that end, the Pembroke Pines Police Department has developed this 15-week Citizens Police Academy for citizens and members of local civic and government organizations within our city.

Community involvement is the most powerful, efficient and practical form any local law enforcement agency has in the fight against crime. We want to encourage our citizens to become active partners with their police department by working together to identify solutions to problems facing our community.

The Pembroke Pines Police Department is very excited about this opportunity to build upon and enhance our partnership with the community. Please accept my sincere appreciation for your interest and commitment to the Citizens Police Academy. I know that you will find our academy both informative and enjoyable.

Sincerely,

Dan S. Giustino
Chief of Police - Pembroke Pines Police Department
