DEADLINE TO SUBMIT APPLICATION: February 24th, 2023. Free enrollment, ages 13-17yrs
The Program is offered at each of the 21 community police stations across the city, as well as at seven specialized divisions.
The Cadet Program is designed to offer youth an opportunity to develop skills that will help them throughout their lives, while working with one of the finest law enforcement agencies in the country.
Cadets are as diverse as the city they represent. Each of them comes from different backgrounds and have different goals and paths that they are following to get there. However, what remains the same in all Cadets is their desire to achieve excellence within their own lives and to then leverage those achievements to positively impact the community where they live.
UPCOMING CADET CLASSES – LAPD CADETS
Our next LAPD Cadet Leadership Academy is scheduled for March 2023.
The Jeopardy Program is a gang prevention/intervention program for boys and girls ages 8 through 17 and their parents. Jeopardy combines the strength of the community, neighborhood schools and the Department to effect positive, lifelong attitudinal changes in young people who are in “jeopardy” of being drawn into the gang lifestyle. As a result, this has a positive impact on the community while diverting youth away from gang activity and crime. JEOPARDY PROGRAM – LAPD CADETS
