"We believe that all citizens have the capacity to create a safer community."
Christiane Sadeler, Executive Director
The tools to stop crime before it happens often lie within the reach of everyday citizens. Crime prevention is everyone's responsibility. By bringing together local government, agencies and citizens we can make a difference!
The Waterloo Region Crime Prevention Council (WRCPC) is an advisory committee to Regional Council that works with community partners to reduce and prevent crime, victimization and fear of crime.
Crime Prevention Council members come from many different walks of life, including the community-at-large, schools, public health, municipal planning, justice, corrections, police, media, community agencies, neighbourhood supports and political representatives.
