About the Junior Police Academy:
Each year the Clermont County Sheriff's Office partners with the Boys and Girl's Club of Clermont County and other local police, fire and emergency service agencies to offer week long Junior Police Academy Summer Camps for boys and girls ages 13 to 17. This program provides a unique experience for youth and law enforcement personnel as the teens are taught basic law enforcement skills and techniques.
JPA cadets learn about law enforcement, teamwork, respect, and positive behavior through hands on interaction with local, state, and federal police & fire/life agencies.
