Citizens' Academy


APPLICATIONS TAKEN YEAR ROUND - SIGN UP NOW!!!!

The Clay County Sheriff's Office Citizens' Academy is a program through which hundreds of Clay County residents, young and old, are learning helpful information about how law enforcement operates in Clay County. The Citizens' Academy concept has been tested and refined by a variety of law enforcement agencies across the country for many years. We modeled our course after those programs that yielded the greatest public interest and have hundreds of graduates who already enjoyed the program and are spreading the word to their friends and neighbors.

The general curriculum of the Citizens' Academy includes the following:

  • General overview from Sheriff Beseler on the history of law enforcement
  • Overview of the personnel and budget of our agency
  • Bureau Commanders will present information on each of their units and the office's role in serving the community. For example, Patrol, SWAT, Communications, Robbery/Homicide and many more
  • Discussions of landmark cases and investigations in CCSO history
  • Tour of the Clay County Jail

The academy spans a ten week period and is held on Tuesday evenings from 6:30-9:30pm. The academy is open to all adult Clay County residents. Criminal background checks are conducted on all participants.  Please feel free to contact Citizens' Academy Coordinator Bill Doolittle at 213-6062.  Interested?  Fill out the application below. We look forward to having YOU in the next Citizens' Academy!
