Reserve Police Officer |
|
The Police Reserve Officer Program is comprised of community members who wish to volunteer as non-paid police officers. These officers supplement the full-time police officers in a variety of duties throughout the department. They patrol in vehicles. This program is ideal for individuals who have an established career but wish to make their community a safer place. Reserve Officers enjoy the best of both worlds, maintain their chosen career and also help the police. Reserve Officers will be called upon and deployed during any major disaster, during major planned events, or when full department deployment is necessary.
A typical Reserve Officer performs at least 12-hours of service each month. A Reserve Officer can volunteer to work more than the minimum 12-hours a month, if they choose.
