Starting February 25, 2026, the Community Police Academy will meet on Wednesday evenings from 6:00-9:00 p.m. for approximately 11 weeks. Participants will be notified of program details before the start date.

This program includes a mix of lectures and interactive demonstrations. The goals of the program are to create closer partnerships with the community, explain law enforcement procedures, and discuss the importance of community policing for a safer Pacifica. There is no cost to attend the Community Police Academy, and the only commitment is your time.

The program is open to adults, 18 years and older, with a limit of approximately 24 participants. All applicants will be carefully screened and will participate in a phone interview. Participants must also live and/or work in the City of Pacifica. Generally, participants will be selected on a first-come first-served basis while ensuring all districts within the City of Pacifica are represented.

Please complete the application, waiver, and email a copy of your state-issued driver’s license or identification card to Sgt. Ryan Bianculli at biancullir@pacificapolice.org. If you do not have a state-issued license or identification card, contact the program coordinator.
