Reserve Police Officer Program (Volunteer)

Colville Police Department has a Reserve Police Officer program. You must meet the same requirements as a full-time commissioned Police Officer. Applications are accepted anytime.

A Reserve Officer’s Police Academy will be set up and run when enough applications have been submitted. This will involve classes 2-3 nights a week and several weekends for 3 months.

Once you graduate from the Academy, you will ride along with our commissioned Officers and handle calls and assist them as needed.

As a Reserve Officer you will be expected to work a minimum of 16 hours a month to maintain your skills.

In the event of an emergency or as needed to augment the Department, you may be called out anytime.

What better way to serve your community and make it safer at the same time.
