Explorer
Program:
|
|
Lakewood
Station’s explorer program is a personal development,
career exploration and community service program tailored
for young adults between 15-21 years of age.
The program’s purpose is to provide experiences to help
young adults mature, prepare them to become responsible and
caring adults and explore a career in law enforcement.
Explorers learn about a law enforcement career by assisting
the station and its Deputy Sheriffs with non-hazardous duties
such as staffing the station lobby, writing reports, completing
administrative tasks, conducting public fingerprinting, "Operation
Kid Print" fingerprinting, performing traffic control
and crowd assistance tasks at parades and civic events, and
assisting with neighborhood crime notifications, search missions
and related field operations.
Explorers work at Lakewood Station, the cities within the
station’s service area and occasionally in other parts
of Los Angeles County assisting with special assignments,
such as parades, air shows, conferences and expositions.
Explorers gain first-hand knowledge and develop practical
law enforcement skills through participation in patrol ride-alongs,
tactical training, and competing in law enforcement competitions.
Explorers improve mental, emotional, social, ethical, physical
and leadership life skills, by undergoing academy training,
being mentored by Deputy Sheriffs, working with fellow explorers,
conducting explorer post operations, fulfilling assigned station
details and participating in special training programs such
as the Explorer Leadership Institute.
Explorers are non-compensated but completely insured while
in training and on duty. New members are expected to furnish
their own uniforms and equipment upon acceptance into the
Program
Initial training for new Deputy Explorers takes place at the
Sheriff’s Department academy located at 11515 South
Colima Road, Whittier. The Explorer Academy consists of approximately
184 hours of instruction during 18 weeks of training on Saturdays.
Subjects such as community relations, criminal law, demeanor,
firearms safety, narcotics control, police procedures and
weaponless defense must be mastered. The trainees are required
to undergo drill and physical training as well as their classroom
work.
Satisfactory completion of the Academy earns the Deputy Explorer
ten high school unit credits. In some cases, college credit
can also be earned by post-graduation Academy involvement.
Minimum Qualifications
• Have at least a "C" average in high school.
• Be between the ages of 15 and 21 years of age.
• Be of good moral character.
• Not have a serious arrest record.
Physical Requirements:
Applicants for Deputy Explorer and other arduous positions
must meet the following physical standards:
• Vision: Correctable to 20/30 in each eye.
• Color Vision: Anything other than minor hue impairment
is disqualifying.
• Hearing: There must be no greater than a 25 dB loss
in the better ear as averaged over the test frequencies of
500, 1,000, 2,000, and 3,000 Hz. There may not be a peak loss
at any of the test frequencies greater than 30 dB at 500 Hz.
Deputy Explorers must meet the same basic physical requirements
as a Deputy Sheriff. The selection process involves a passing
grade on an oral interview and a medical examination.
If you think you want to become a Law Enforcement Explorer,
and you feel that you meet the minimum qualifications, contact
the Deputy Donald Pollaro, Lakewood Station Explorer Advisor
at (562) 866-9061.

Lakewood
Reserve Program:
|

The volunteer
Deputy Sheriffs of Lakewood Station Reserve Company 13 have
been have been proudly serving the cities of Lakewood, Bellflower,
Paramount, Artesia and Hawaiian Gardens since 1958. If you
are an area resident interested in a unique and rewarding
way to assist your neighbors and maintain the quality of
life of your community, we invite you to join us!
Reserve Deputy
Sheriffs are utilized to supplement the Los Angeles County
Sheriff’s Department law enforcement manpower. Like
full-time Deputies, Reserve Deputies are professionally
trained free of charge and duly sworn peace officers. In
most cases, Reserves are assigned to the same duties as
full-time Deputies. Since Reserve Deputies have the same
powers of arrest as full-time Deputies, they are required
by law to meet the same hiring, background, medical and
psychological standards as full time Deputies.
Lakewood Station’s
reserve company is part of the Sheriff’s uniform reserve
force. Uniformed Reserves perform general law enforcement
duties, including responding to calls, traffic control and
collision investigation, crime investigation, crime prevention,
disaster response and participation in local and county-wide
civic events. After initial training, Reserve Deputies volunteer
a minimum of 16 hours of law enforcement duty each month,
attend a monthly meeting and participate in civic events.
Hours are flexible.
For those who
are able to meet the rigorous training and initial time
commitments, the program offers a unique, meaningful and
personally fulfilling community service opportunity. As
a first step towards your goal, I would like to invite you
to one of our Reserve Recruitment Nights. Knowledgeable
Reserve Deputies will be on hand to help you learn more
about the program, or you may start the application process
by taking the written examination. For your convenience,
Reserve Recruitment Nights are conducted:
• On the first Tuesday of each month, 6:30 –
8:00 at
Lakewood Sheriff’s Station
5130 North Clark Avenue
Lakewood, CA 90712
(on Clark just north of Del Amo)
• On the third Tuesday of each month, 6:30 –
9:30 at
LASD S.T.A.R.S. Center
11515 Colima Road, Room H20
Whittier, CA 90604
(Telegraph Rd. At Valley View)
Should you have any further questions, please call Sergeant
Kit Armstrong, Lakewood Station Reserve Coordinator, at
(562) 866-9061
