Safe Communities: Common goals, common ground
Alberta Solicitor General and Public Security is responsible for developing and promoting crime prevention programs and for advancing restorative justice initiatives. In meeting this responsibility, financial and other forms of support are provided to a variety of organizations (such as police, non-profit entities, Aboriginal based agencies and social service providers) to effectively address crime issues at the community level.
Much of the crime prevention and restorative justice work carried out by Alberta Solicitor General and Public Security, whether it is the development of new policies, new strategies or new programs, is done in partnership with our stakeholders.
The pages in this section showcase crime prevention and restorative justice programs. They also highlight a wide variety of crime prevention information for both community-minded organizations and for families and individuals. You will also find links to external websites that provide tips to help prevent you, your family, or your organization from becoming a victim of crime.
