GENESEO: Sheriff Thomas J. Dougherty announces the inaugural Livingston County Sheriff’s Office Adult Citizen’s Academy. This opportunity is available to individuals who are at least 19 years of age that either reside in or work within Livingston County. The Sheriff’s Office will be hosting two sessions this summer, with the first session beginning on June 4th, 2024. This is a 10-week, 1 day per week, program where individuals will have the opportunity to participate in classroom instruction on various topics related to law enforcement, view demonstrations and learn more about each specialty unit at the Sheriff’s Office, as well as tour various facilities associated with the Sheriff’s Office. The objective of our Adult Citizen Academy is to give members of our community the opportunity to learn more about the training received by Deputy Sheriffs and to give them a better understanding of the ever-changing world of modern day law enforcement. Individuals will also be able to have one on one interaction with several specialty unit members of the Livingston County Sheriff’s Office and learn more about their specialty and the continuous training that it requires. Although individuals who complete the Adult Citizen’s Academy will not be a certified Police Officer upon completion, our goal is to provide them with greater knowledge and insight into their Sheriff’s Office, as well as meet our team. If you are interested in learning more about what topics will be covered during the 10-week training, please click on this schedule for more information as well as specific dates for each topic. Individuals who are interested in applying are asked to print out and complete an application available on our website at www.livingstoncounty.us/sheriff under the TAKE ACTION tab. Applications may be dropped off at the Livingston County Sheriff’s Office at 4 Court St. Geneseo, NY 14454 or can be e-mailed to Sergeant Robert Holt at rholt@co.livingston.ny.us.
