(CALEDON, ON) – 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. 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 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 members of the Caledon Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) to learn about crime trends, share concerns and ideas and then develop a response. Crime prevention responses must meet four basic criteria: effective, economical, fair and safe for all involved.
If you would like to learn more about the “behind the scene†efforts that build a safe and secure environment, or would like to be connected with current volunteer members, contact Provincial Constable Brenda Evans.
Community Safety doesn’t just happen, it’s planned.
