Does anyone here have any experience volunteering for a police agency? I want a career in law enforcement, but the hiring rate is not great right now. I am 22 years old, work full-time as a security officer and I think it would look good if I volunteer at a police agency. I contacted a local county and asked if I can join their volunteer program. The recruiter advised there will be an interview, followed by a 2-3 month background check. Any experience from both LEO and Non-LEO welcome.

it's actually a good idea if you have the time to spare. it'll give you a better idea of actual work and politics around the department. -
You can volunteer from a Code Enforcement Officer to Citizen Patrol. Ask your local city.-If you insult me for my grammar errors, what makes you think I understand the insult?
-Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Are we done
-Voting is like falling off your bike. Sidewalk or street. Both are painful to fall on. But, the sidewalk (Mitt) is closer to the green grass.Comment

Volunteering as what? There are many different types of jobs you can do as a volunteer. The local PD where I live has a volunteer translator program since they have a large migrant population and the PD always needs help. There are also community volunteers at the desk and neighborhood watch people. Find out what you are doing first.I like guns

Sponsor yourself through a modular academy to get a POST certificate and then hire on as a reserve officer."Bruen, the Bruen opinion, I believe, discarded the intermediate scrutiny test that I also thought was not very useful; and has, instead, replaced it with a text history and tradition test."
