The Cass County Sheriff's Office is set to begin the fall session of the
Sheriff's Citizen Academy. The Sheriff's Citizens Academy (SCA)
initiated by Sheriff Dwight Diehl is a free eight-week course that gives
citizens an in-depth look and hands on training into the career of law
enforcement at the Sheriff's Office. Citizens will be instructed by
deputies on the subject of patrol, jail, communications, investigations,
court, and community policing.
Courses are held on Wednesday nights from 6:30 p.m. until approximately
9:30 p.m. Each week a new topic will be introduced and discussed.
Citizens will also have the opportunity to ride along with a patrol
deputy, work with jail deputies and communication officers. This
enables them to observe firsthand how the Sheriff's Office handles
incidents.
Participants must be 18 years of age or older, have no felony or serious
misdemeanor convictions and must be a resident or business owner in
Cass County.
The Sheriff's Citizens Academy will begin on August 20th, 2014 and is limited to 20 persons.
Individuals interested in attending the Sheriff's Citizens Academy should contact
Lt. Kevin Tieman at 816-380-8615, or SEND AN EMAIL.
