We want to inform our community that the University will once again host the Redlands Emergency Services Academy(RESA) from 7/12 - 7/19. RESA is an annual academy designed for teens. It was founded in 1999 as a partnership between the Redlands Police Department, Redlands Fire Department, Redlands Unified School District, and Crafton Hills Community College as a proactive effort to provide graduating high school seniors with positive exposure to the challenges, benefits, and rewards of a career in public safety or emergency fire services. The weeklong, live-in academy also stresses the development of leadership skills and teamwork and the value of meaningful contribution to one’s community in either a paid or volunteer position. During the academy, participants will engage in a multitude of simulated activities.
As in previous years, the participants wear matching attire with logos. On-duty officers who may be uniformed and armed will be present. At various times, there will be emergency rescue vehicles, fire trucks, and police cars on campus to support the simulated activities. The University’s Event Services and Public Safety departments are aware of all their activities and Public Safety will be available on-campus throughout the duration of the training.
If you have any questions or concerns, please email Mackenzie
