Have your say on B.C.’s Policing Plan

http://blog.gov.bc.ca/bcpolicingplan/

VICTORIA – The provincial government has committed to creating a 10-year strategic plan for policing – and we’d like to encourage you to have your say. It’s critical that people have confidence in our police, and that means working together to identify priorities and develop solutions for the challenges of the future. It also means developing the plan transparently, so you have a clear view of how your feedback is being incorporated and what other work is ongoing. To do just that, we have now launched an interactive website: http://blog.gov.bc.ca/bcpolicingplan/ The site features a blog where we’ll be hosting regular dialogue sessions around key themes like community safety, crime prevention and responding to gang violence. Crime in B.C. is at a 30-year historic low, but with new and emerging challenges for policing and community safety, it’s important for us to get a deeper understanding of how your community is impacted by criminal activity and what local strategies might be useful throughout the province.
