Richmond Police Department Internship Program

The Richmond Police Department provides an exceptional learning opportunity for those interested in participating in our internship program. Interns selected will work as non-paid, non-sworn civilians for the Richmond Police Department. Interns will be rotated around various departments within the police department during their internship to maximize their learning experience.
