The FBI Detroit Citizens Academy Alumni Association is a nonprofit organization separate and apart from the FBI.
We are community-based and a member supported organization designed to promote a safer community through community service projects and a process of educating business, labor, media, medical, minority, religious, government, youth, senior citizens, and other community leaders about law enforcement, with particular emphasis on the mission and resources of the FBI.
As a Chapter of the FBI National Citizens Academy Association (www.fbincaaa.org) , it is our mission to help the FBI lower the crime rate in our city. For decades our City has ranked highest in the nation on the crime index. We want to make our city safer. We want to help our citizens feel secure.
Our vision is to grow our chapter and increase awareness and strengthen community partnerships. It will take each and every one of us doing something for the greater good. We want to help.
