The Bucks County Sheriff’s Department will be hosting a Citizens’ Academy this spring.

The Citizens’ Academy is similar to the program offered by Falls Township police but will give Bucks County residents insight into the training and duties carried out by the sheriff’s department, which is led by Sheriff Edward “Duke” Donnelly. Officials from agencies that interact and work with the sheriff’s department will also be featured during the 10-week class.
