Dawson Civic Leadership Institute

Week One of the DCLI Public Safety Internship Program is underway!
We are kicking off the summer with an exciting first week of learning, exploration, and hands-on experiences. Interns had the opportunity to connect with public safety professionals, tour training spaces, experience the VirTra simulation system, and learn more about the skills, teamwork, and leadership needed in the field.
This program gives students a firsthand look at public safety careers while helping them build confidence, ask questions, and see what it takes to serve and protect a community.
This is just the beginning of a summer filled with growth, learning, and unforgettable experiences.
Stay tuned as we continue to highlight our interns’ journey!
