Experience of a
lifetime awaits |
July 29,2009 |
A number of lucky students
will get the experience
of a lifetime this
summer.
Thanks to support from
the Ministry of Children
and Youth Services,
Durham Regional Police
will be providing 44 students
from local highschools the
opportunity to participate in the
Youth in Policing program
(YIP)."Youth in this program gain
experience and valuable new
skills which is a great way to
unlock their potential," said Deb
Matthews, the minister of children
and youth services. "Youth
in Policing gives kids the opportunity
connect with the police in
a positive way that promotes
understanding and respect for
one another."
Throughout the program students,
aged 14 to 17, will get a
unique look into the workings
of Canada’s 10th
largest municipal police
service."It's a win-win situation,"
says Deputy Chief
Sherry Whiteway."These kids get to see
what wonderful career opportunities
are available to them and
we have a unique opportunity to
connect with young adults and
learn more about their world." |
