The Taney County Sheriff’s Office recently wrapped up its first Citizen Academy by celebrating those who graduated from the program.
The Citizen Academy program spans 12 weeks. Participants in the program are provided classes which offer lectures and hands-on material to help them better understand the inner workings of the sheriff’s office.
Taney County Sheriff Brad Daniels said the academy helps to provide transparency and educates the public about procedures within the sheriff’s department through classroom learning and hands-on demonstration.
