Crime Prevention Committee depends on volunteers
January 24, 2014 · 0 Comments
Residents and visitors to the Caledon area enjoy a level of security that is envied by many, but it doesn’t just happen.
Strict enforcement, municipal leadership and community involvement are the keys to an extraordinary level of comfort and safety, according to Caledon OPP. In the Caledon area, it’s the remarkable community involvement component that allows municipal and policing partners to develop strategies and programs that are effective and sustainable.
The Town of Caledon Crime Prevention Committee is seen as a perfect example of how residents can learn – develop and share crime prevention tips with their neighbours. Volunteer members of the Crime Prevention Committee work directly with police to learn about crime trends, share concerns and ideas and then develop responses. Crime prevention responses must meet four basic criteria: effective, economical, fair and safe for all involved.
To learn more about the “behind the scene” efforts that build a safe and secure environment, or to be connected with current volunteer members, contact Constable Brenda Evans at Caledon OPP.
