Who We Are
The Wyoming Police Reserve Program was founded in 2009 and is authorized for 10 members. Our volunteer non-sworn Reserve Officers assist the Police Department by promoting safety and assisting during special events, as well as during significant incidents and disasters. Reserve Officers perform the following tasks:
- Neighborhood and park patrols
- Natural disaster, emergency response, traffic and crowd control
- Search for lost persons
- Crime scene security
- Bike patrol
- Training role players
- Special events
Training
Reserve Officers begin by attending a reserve academy, followed by bi-monthly continued education and training. They participate in training designed to increase their knowledge of law enforcement procedures. This training is conducted by active Wyoming PD officers with high levels of experience. Reserve Officers are given the opportunity to experience the challenges and rewards that law enforcement has to offer.
