Lapd Cadets

The Cadet Program is a community-based crime prevention program that aims to empower youth, ages 13 to 17 years, and maximize their personal and scholastic potential through the emphasis of the program’s four cornerstones: Leadership, Academic Excellence, Ethical and Wise Decision-Making, and Community Stewardship.  It is considered the LAPD’s signature youth program and has proven to be its most enduring.
