Denver Police Teen Volunteer Program
The Denver Police Volunteers in Police Service program is accepting applications for the Denver Police Teen Volunteer Program, which is for teens between the ages of 16 and 19. The Teen Volunteer Program is designed to provide an opportunity for teenagers to experience DPD behind the scenes while working alongside police officers and staff. The volunteer program runs from June to the beginning of August and requires 20 hours of volunteer time during that period.
The Teen Volunteer Program will seek to:
- Build relationships between youth and police officers
- Offer teens an opportunity to get involved in their communities
- Help teens earn volunteer hours, often required for high school graduation, college applications, and scholarships
