The Crime Prevention Action Fund (CPAF) supports crime prevention initiatives in communities large and small. It aims to build partnerships between sectors (such as policing, community health, voluntary and private sectors) to enhance community capacity to prevent crime through social development. It is a federal program that is delivered regionally in partnerships with the provincial and territorial governments, and nationally for those projects involving more than one jurisdiction.
