Nelson Police Department announces return of Youth Police Academy

The Nelson Police Department is bringing back its Youth Police Academy this November- a hands-on program designed for youth aged 11 to 14.

Running over four weeks, the Academy offers young participants a behind-the-scenes look at law enforcement, with interactive sessions led by Nelson Police officers. From learning about investigations to exploring teamwork and leadership, it’s a unique opportunity to experience the world of policing in a fun and educational setting.

The program is free, but space is limited—early registration is strongly encouraged.

Session dates and registration details are available on the Nelson Police Department website or by emailing [email protected].
