Citizens Police Academy

Alumni Association

The Knoxville Police Department's Citizens Police Academy (CPA) was formed in the summer of 1995 in order to foster a partnership between the Police Department and the neighborhoods that it serves. The goal of the CPA is to create and develop a growing nucleus of responsible, well informed citizens who have the potential to influence public opinion concerning police practices and service delivery. Graduates of the program will fulfill the critical role of providing input and information to their neighborhoods which will increase citizen involvement on issues of mutual concern. This active citizen participation will improve the quality of life and build lasting and productive partnerships between the police department and the communities served by it.
