The Milford Exploring Law Enforcement Post 29 Ride-Along program was certified by the National Law Enforcement Exploring Committee Task Force.

Since the inception of Law Enforcement Exploring, Explorers in many posts have participated in ride-along programs with their participating organizations. In 1979, the National Law Enforcement Committee approached the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) about sponsoring a program whereby law enforcement agencies that have Exploring Posts could certify their Explorers who qualified to participate in that agency's ride-along program.

The certification came after an Application packet was submitted by Officer John Tiernan who worked for the last few months putting the information together. Explorers participating in the program receive eight hours training on the ride-along procedures. The Milford Post is the only Exploring Agency in the region receiving the certification.

The project is coordinated by advisors Milford Police Officers John Tiernan, Carlos A. Sousa, and Massachusetts State Trooper Christine Fisher who is currently assigned to the Grafton Barracks. There are ten available seats for this year, anyone interested in more information about the Milford Post may contact Officer Tiernan at (508) 473-1113 x 525.
