Featured CAP Instructor
CAP Instructor, Sergeant Kevin Bray
“I was impressed by the CAP training material because if we truly want to impact terrorist and criminal activity within our communities, it is relevant and necessary for law enforcement to build a partnership with the citizens. If each and every one of us accepts some responsibility for being aware of our surroundings and is willing to report suspicious behavior accordingly, the impact is greatly multiplied and much more effective.” – Sgt. Kevin Bray – Denver Police Department, Over 20 years of service, CAP Instructor since 2012.
