The Delray Beach Residents Academy is a six (6) week program which is held twice a year (spring and fall). Each session is three (3) hours, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., one evening a week (Thursdays), ending with a graduation ceremony. Classes will include an overview of City government and pertinent information from City departments. At the end of the semester, participants should have an increased understanding of the organizational structure and operations of the various City departments that impact the quality of life in the City of Delray Beach. Graduates of the Academy will be prepared to take a positive role in the future of their neighborhoods and the City overall through government/citizen interaction.

There is no charge for the program.  The only cost is your time, effort, and commitment.  You must, however, be a resident of the City of Delray Beach.
