Superhero Division

Did you know that the Erie Police Department has a Superhero’s Division? That's right - and it's made of kids who pay it forward to others and help make our community a better place! If you would like to become an Erie Police Department Superhero you can start today by helping others! Youth ages 5-17 are invited to:

  • Keep track of your activities and please take pictures! 
  • Once you have completed your superhero task(s), complete the superhero nomination. Bonus points for submitting photographs of the activity/event, and a picture of you holding a sign saying “#EPDSuperheroChallenge”. 

You will be entered for a chance to win a special Superhero t-shirt, a goodie bag, an invite to a VIP Superhero party hosted by Erie Police Department, and be recognized on the Erie Police Department’s social media.
