Who We Are

The Kenosha Police Department Cadet Unit #67 is an affiliate of the Wisconsin Law Enforcement Education Advocates Association (WLEEA).  It is a program    designed for young men and women,    between the ages of 14 & 21, who are    interested in law enforcement.
Cadet Unit #67, which is sponsored by the Kenosha Police Department, helps to    educate its members by giving them  working knowledge of procedures, duties and concepts of law enforcement.
The program helps youths to develop self-esteem, leadership qualities, teamwork, professionalism, responsibility, and good work ethics as well as facilitate and strengthen relations between police and the community.
