🎓 Congratulations to the 30 graduates of our Citizens Police Academy Class 02-2026! Over the past 12 weeks, these community members got an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at LVMPD, learning what it takes to serve Southern Nevada through classroom instruction, hands-on demonstrations, tours, and conversations with the officers and professionals who keep our community safe.
