PUBLIC SAFETY CADETS

          Howell Police Public Safety Cadets are a youth-adult volunteer program sponsored by the Howell Police and the National Public Safety Cadet organization. Members participate in training programs with the Howell Police and national organizations and assist Howell Police and surrounding departments with community related functions.     

GOALS OF THE HOWELL PUBLIC SAFETY CADETS

To give young adults a better understanding of the workings of a municipal police department and other areas related to law enforcement. Cadets learn by doing, with “on-the-job” first-hand experience.

To learn and be educated in the many varied specialties that are available to the Cadets, should they choose a professional law enforcement career, and to help guide them towards achieving their aims in life.

To help young adults become mature, responsible citizens through character building, leadership development and an appreciation for community service and good citizenship.

To serve as a community relations effort between police and youth and between youth and community.
