The Plainfield Citizens Police and Fire Academy is an educational, informative, and fun program that allows citizens the opportunity to learn about the issues that face law enforcement and fire protection in the Village of Plainfield. The purpose of the PCPFA is to increase understanding and communication between the Plainfield Police Department, the Plainfield Fire Protection District, and the citizens that we serve in the community.

Some topics of instruction include:
