What is a DOCENT? A volunteer educator! Museum docents should have an interest in supporting law enforcement officers, a positive attitude, and a willingness to learn. No experience is necessary - we will teach you everything you need to know.
TOP 5 REASONS YOU SHOULD BECOME A DOCENT AT THE APHF®:
-
You support our Law Enforcement Officers! Becoming a docent at the APHF® is a wonderful way to support our officers – teaching about the history and various aspects of law enforcement!
-
You love to learn! Docents have the opportunity to learn about the Museum’s collection, special exhibits and history during docent training. Docents will be giving guided tours and assisting with special events.
-
Giving back to your community! Docents bridge the gap between law enforcement and our visitors, helping local and global visitors to get excited about supporting these brave men and women!
-
You love to talk! Not only do docents teach, but they also engage in conversations with visitors of all ages, backgrounds, and cultures about the importance of supporting our officers.

Make new and lasting friendships by interacting with people that share your interests and participating in the social opportunities available to you through becoming at docent at APHF®.
