Our initiatives: building a safer Gurnee together

At the Gurnee Citizen Police Academy Alumni Association (GurneeCPAAA), our dedicated volunteers work tirelessly to support the Gurnee Police Department and enhance our local community. We believe in fostering strong relationships between citizens and law enforcement, contributing to a safer and more vibrant Gurnee for everyone.

Empowering our police force

GurneeCPAAA stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the Gurnee Police Department. Our volunteers provide crucial assistance at police-led events, helping with logistics and public engagement. We also actively fundraise to secure vital resources and equipment that fall outside typical budgets, ensuring our officers have the tools they need to protect and serve our community effectively.

Engaging and enriching gurnee

Beyond direct police support, GurneeCPAAA members are deeply embedded in the fabric of Gurnee. Annually, our volunteers dedicate countless hours to various community events, from safety fairs to local festivals. This active participation strengthens community bonds, promotes civic responsibility, and contributes to a lively and secure environment for all residents.

Cultivating civic understanding

We believe that an informed citizenry is a strong citizenry. GurneeCPAAA encourages continuous civic growth among its members and the wider community through educational sessions and presentations. These programs cover crucial topics in law enforcement, local community issues, and highlight opportunities for service, empowering individuals to make a difference.

"We are committed to supporting our police department and making Gurnee a safer and more vibrant community."
