The Atascadero Police Explorer Post 48 is a good way for youth and young adults to become involved with police department activities while serving their community.

It also serves as a service-oriented, leadership experience, which instills respect for law enforcement’s goal to protect and serve the public. The Police Explorers find themselves participating in many different activities including crowd and traffic control for community events, patrol ride-a-longs, station and desk help, training various aspects of law enforcement and helping in emergency situations.

The Atascadero Police Department is currently looking for young people who want to get involved in their community.

Each candidate is required to submit an application and participate in an oral interview with current police ecplorers.
