Our Mission
Our objective is to prevent crime within the territorial jurisdiction of the Stony Plain detachment of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). We coordinate representatives from the various crime prevention groups operating in these areas.
|
Our main purpose is to alert citizens to criminal activities, educate them about crime prevention, and assist with crime prevention activities.
We also act as an advisory committee on policing issues for the RCMP. |
What do we do to reduce crime?We initiate crime prevention projects and support and/or coordinate crime prevention activities with our member associations.

Crime in the CommunityCriminal activity such as break and entry, theft, vandalism, trespassing, and poaching are steadily increasing in rural Alberta. Many of these incidents can be prevented or suspects apprehended through the cooperative efforts of the community and law enforcement agencies.

Who Pays For Crime?
Everyone. Crime is costing us millions of dollars every year.
These costs are reflected not only in loss of property but also in higher insurance premiums, replacement or repair of equipment, lost production time for the farmers and ranchers, and depletion of precious fish and wildlife resources and habitats. |
GET INVOLVEDStatistics show where there is organized crime prevention there is a significant reduction in criminal activity. A cooperative effort helps make our communities safer for everyone.
