Community Events

Mission Police officers love meeting with our community. If your group, neighborhood or homeowners association is having an event and you’d like an officer to stop by, please email Officer Chudik or call 913.676.8300.

When officers are not detained on an active call, they are happy to:

• Speak to school groups, clubs or organizations on matters of public safety
• Participate in a birthday parade in their patrol cars
• Visit with neighbors at a block party
• Provide tours of the police station

Citizens Police Academy

Back for 2024, this 10-week program gives residents the opportunity to gain a better understanding of how the Mission Police Department works.

The Citizens Police Academy is designed to be both educational and enjoyable. The Academy covers topics such as:

• Criminal and death investigations
• Patrol operations
• DUI and traffic enforcement
• Interview and interrogation techniques
• Domestic violence situations and response
• Search and seizure
• Defensive tactics
• Less lethal weapons
• Firearms

Participants also receive behind-the-scenes tours of the Johnson County Adult Detention Center, Johnson County Emergency Communications Center and the County’s state-of-the-art criminalistics laboratory.

Applications are currently closed as our 2024 session has begun. Check back for more opportunities in 2025.
