Check the Directory

LAPSEN hosts the national Directory of Youth Law Enforcement Experience Programs for the Department of Justice COPs program. The database is for ALL PATHWAYs – legal, fire, and others as well as law enforcement. Agencies, educational researchers, and fellow teachers use this to find you. It is very important your program is listed. You can also use it yourself to find other programs.

Search for your program. Add or update your program if needed.
