Crime Prevention

Budget 2006 provides $20 million, over two years, for communities to help prevent youth crime with a focus on guns, gangs, and drugs. Tackling crime is one of the government’s five key priorities.

The new funds will support community-based prevention and intervention projects, targeting youth at risk.  These projects are directed at preventing youth from entering gangs and assisting them in exiting gangs.

These new efforts will enhance existing partnerships with provinces and municipalities dealing with gangs and their effects on communities.
