The FBI Houston Citizens Academy Alumni Association (Chapter) is a non-profit tax exempt 501 (c) (3) organization separate and apart from the FBI, dedicated to supporting the mission of the FBI. In our role as Ambassadors between the FBI and the Community, the Chapter supports and serves the FBI in assisting with education; bringing awareness and preparedness to the public in order to help provide for a safer community.

The Citizens Academy is a method used by the FBI and law enforcement agencies around the country to engage the community. Held once a year in Houston, Texas resident agency, the Citizens Academy gives community leaders, business professionals, religious leaders, and other citizens an inside look at the FBI and its operations. The program is seven to eight weeks where participants get the opportunity to meet the men and women of the FBI and gain an appreciation for the job they do. If you wish to be considered for this program, please contact the FBI at outreach.houston@fbi.gov.
