WHAT WE DO

Leading the Way in Community Safety Awareness Transforming Community Policing: “Together, We Build a Safer Tomorrow.”

We want to help and create a better world

As virtual gaming environments and simulation-based training tools have improved in quality and cost, the possibilities are limitless to teach and practice lifelike situations. This is done by means of a repeatable process overseen by specially trained law enforcement officers, social workers and educators experienced with working with at-risk kids, and community mentors all without the risk of physical harm to anyone based on bad decisions.

By aligning with programs established by law enforcement agencies and youth serving organizations collectively, we provide techniques, methods, and data analytic processes to produce measurable dynamic solutions for building community trust with law enforcement officers, for reducing youthful offender violent crime, and decreasing gun violence associated with youth gangs.

The YCPA Program provides valuable life experiences and can be a pathway to high paying and legitimate future employment alleviating a vicious cycle of poverty among many young adults which is one the most prolific motivators for violent criminal activity in the community. Reimagining community policing by strategically implementing Esports and drone experiences, stimulating career growth possibilities, we can create a safer and more positive community for everyone.

YCPA Engagement Programs

Reimagining community-oriented policing with STEM, including taking drone pilot activities and Esports gaming to next levels can be a powerful tool for promoting positive relationships between law enforcement officers and at-risk youth. By incorporating interactive gaming skills and drone pilot knowledge young people can be engaged in a safe and fun activity while building trust and camaraderie with law enforcement officers.

The YCPA Esports and Drone Program is an optimal way to build excitement and get young people to consistently show up for community policing engagement sessions. Through the use of drone technology, participants will learn about drone safety, flight mechanics, and the use of drones. Additionally, the use of Esports can promote social and emotional learning and teach young people valuable life skills such as teamwork, collaboration, handling frustration, and leadership.
