Teenagers looking at carrers in law enforcement are encouraged to join Winter Haven's Youth Council.

Members of the Youth Council will experience hands-on activities over the course of the four weeks while gaining a much better understanding of what it takes to work in the field of law enforcement.

The Council consists of approximately 15 members who serve voluntarily and meet every-other week with agency members for a total of four meetings. All sessions are held on Tuesdays from 8 am – 3 pm.

Applications are due by May 25.

Those interested in serving on the Winter Haven Police Youth Leadership Council can request an application by going to the Winter Haven Police Department website at www.WinterHavenPD.com  and clicking the link on the homepage.

 Applications can also be obtained by calling 863-291-5858, ext. 2351.
