Police
Explorers
The
West Hartford Police Explorers have a long standing reputation
of developing the youth of our community through a hands on
approach toward learning about the law enforcement profession.
Through police and civilian advisors, the explorers are introduced
to law enforcement by classroom instruction and practical
demonstrations.
In
addition to learning about police work the post attempts to
develop the individual by challenging them to perform and
meet the high standards of the post.
In
our effort to develop the individual we hope to:
- instill
self respect as well as respect for others
- emphasize
the importance of team work
- develop
their senses of responsibility and accountability
- develop
leadership skills
- promote
citizenship and community service
