The Palmdale and Lancaster Sheriff’s Stations are in the process of selecting 50 interested residents from the station areas to participate in the Antelope Valley’s Thirty Second Community Academy. This program will focus on the Sheriff Department’s operational procedures, as well as sessions ranging from criminal law to undercover operations.
Participants will go on a ride-a-long, tour a custody facility and participate in role-playing exercises. The purpose of the Community Academy is to build a better understanding between the community and the Sheriff’s Department through education. The class will meet for eight consecutive weeks and is absolutely free. Classes will be held on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 P.M. to 9:00 P.M., at the Lancaster Sheriff Station, 501 W. Lancaster Blvd., in the City of Lancaster.
If you are interested in participating in this free class, please go to the Lancaster or Palmdale Sheriff Station and obtain an application at the front counter. If you have any questions, contact Deputy Jodi Wolfe of the Palmdale Sheriff’s Station at (661) 272-2520 or by email at [email protected] or Sgt. Theresa Dawson of the Lancaster Sheriff’s at (661) 948-8466 or by email at [email protected]. Due to the limited class room space, only the first 50 applicants will be accepted; therefore you will be notified only if you are selected. Those applicants who are eligible but are not enrolled in the academy class will be placed on a list for possible future selection.
