Biloxi Police Department opens applications for sixth Citizen’s Police Academy

The Biloxi Police Department announced on its Facebook page that it is accepting applications for the sixth annual Citizen’s Police Academy.

The department directed residents to a flyer in the post for more information about the program and how to apply. The Facebook announcement did not include additional details about dates, eligibility or curriculum.

Citizen’s Police Academy programs typically offer community members a behind-the-scenes look at law enforcement operations, training and procedures. Such programs aim to increase transparency, build relationships between residents and officers, and improve public understanding of policing roles and responsibilities.

The Biloxi Police Department is the municipal law enforcement agency serving Biloxi, a Gulf Coast city in Mississippi. Residents interested in participating are advised to consult the flyer posted by the department for application instructions. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
