Our Solution
How we’ve helped make Mississauga one of the safest large cities in Canada
Our Watches
From the streets to the storefronts and classrooms, our three Watch programs embody our collective resolve to protect what matters most. Through vigilance, education, and unwavering unity, these programs help us look out for each other at home, work, and school.
Child & Youth
Our children and youth programs empower the next generation to stay safe and make a difference. We equip young people with the tools and knowledge to make safe choices, build resilience, and contribute positively to their communities. From school safety workshops to youth leadership development, our programs inspire and nurture the potential of every child and teen in Mississauga.
Events
From our annual Crime Prevention Conference, where top experts share insights and strategies, to the Justice Luncheon, Neighbour’s Night Out, and CPTED training, our events focus on the crucial transfer of knowledge. By bringing together community members and leading crime prevention minds, we equip everyone with the tools and understanding needed to build a safer city together.
