The Braidwood police department has plans to start a new cadet program, with the hope of mentoring potential future officers while getting a little part-time help.
On June 12, Braidwood Police Chief Nick Ficarello told members of the City Council that the department would like to add cadets to its payroll — hiring young adults to work part-time while learning the ropes of law enforcement.
“We’d like to start a mentoring program with two young adults to form a police cadet program,” Ficarello said. “Police cadets will be used to supervise our community service workers.”
