“I joined the H.P.D. Explorers program to have a better insight of the Houston
Police department, get more discipline, and sense of rank structure before I
leave for the United States Marine Corps. (July 2015). The Explorers have given
me a better understanding of what Police Officers go through and have further
prepared me for my career as a future Officer for the Houston Police
Department. Since joining the Explorer program, I have made some great
friends that have a common interest in Law Enforcement. I have also been
able to represent the H.P.D. in the following competitions: North Harris
County, Lake Jackson/Angleton, and Austin, TX.
Last
summer, I was able to complete an internship with the Houston Police Department
and was able to help start this program during my internship. I highly
recommend this regimented, yet fun, program for fellow teenagers that are interested
in Law Enforcement.”
