Opportunity Description:

OUTREACH

Outreach initiatives develop the relationship between the GWCPC and the community. Program activities are delivered by volunteers, staff and the Neighbourhood Police Officer through support and participation in a wide range of events.

Our programs range from working with the VPD, RCMP, ICBC, BC CRN, to different cultural events like Italian Days, Vaisakhi Parade, the Chinese New Year Parade to First Nations New Moon Festivals.

Goals of the Community Outreach Program:
– Educate the public about crime prevention
– Provide information on reporting crime and quality of life concerns to the VPD, City and
the GWCPC
– Provide events that encourage neighbours to know one another
– Build relationships with other community organizations
