Summary
In Spring 2009, MCSCS partnered with the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police (OACP) to initiate the development of a provincial response to crime and victimization through a collaborative and integrated crime prevention approach. As a first step, MCSCS, in partnership with the OACP, has developed the Crime Prevention in Ontario: A Framework for Action booklet, which is intended to: raise awareness and generate a dialogue on crime prevention in Ontario; highlight the opportunities to move forward; set the stage for the development of further crime prevention work which will: build and enhance crime prevention partnerships; encourage the development of coordinated, multi-sectoral responses; and promote community leadership and participation in crime prevention.
