Letter from the Mayor
Dear Washingtonians,
Earlier this week, we opened a new MPD Cadet Corps training center?? the first space solely dedicated to supporting the Cadet Corps program.?
Through the MPD Cadet Corps program, DC residents between the ages of 17 and 24 are able to serve part-time as uniformed, civilian employees while earning college credit. There are many reasons a young Washingtonian might want to become a cadet:
* The Cadet Corps program is a pathway to the middle class. In addition to receiving a starting salary of $35,637, cadets also earn?60 tuition-free credits toward a degree at the University of the District of Columbia Community College.?
* The Cadet Corps program supports our efforts to ensure we are hiring more women at MPD and more DC residents. All cadets are DC residents and 51% of cadets are women.
* The Cadet Corps program is an opportunity for young people to serve and support their communities while building their careers. In fact, Chief Contee joined MPD as a young cadet.?
Even more persuasive than this list, though, is watching Cadet Alston describe his decision to join the Cadet Corps:

You can learn more about the MPD Cadet Corps program at joinMPD.dc.gov [ [link removed] ]. On Wednesday, October 26, MPD is hosting a recruiting webinar where interested individuals can chat directly with an MPD recruiter about the process. Register for the webinar HERE [ [link removed] ].?
Sincerely,
Muriel Bowser
