Crime Prevention

WORKING TOGETHER

Everyone has a role to play in making the city safe and welcoming.

 

COMMUNITY-LED

The Thunder Bay Crime Prevention Council brings together citizens, youth and representatives of more than 27 sectors and agencies in our community. The Crime Prevention Council is an advisory committee to Thunder Bay City Council and works with community partners to reduce and prevent crime, victimization and fear of crime.

 

EVIDENCE-BASED

There is a substantial and mounting body of evidence that clearly demonstrates preventative measures focusing on human and social development reduce the factors that lead to crime, victimization, social breakdown and lower quality of life. Crime prevention reduces not only the costs associated with criminal justice, but also those associated with health, education, policing and other social services.

 

Together we can make Thunder Bay a safer and more welcoming city.
