Empowering At-Risk Youth

TAPS Academy is a program primarily designed for at-risk youth and police officer mentors.

Enhancing Communities

TAPS Academy students are given the tools to become better citizens in their communities.

TAPS Academy Partners

Ensuring great partners for this growing program is of the utmost importance for our success.
