CIRCLES OF UNDERSTANDING PROJECT

Developed by Vancouver Aboriginal Community Policing Centre Society

Our Mandate

To provide community leadership in promoting healthy, positive, and transformative relationships between the Vancouver Police Department and the Aboriginal community by fostering accessible programming that empowers individuals and communities.

Our Approach

We are an Aboriginal-governed organization and use a community development, culturally-based approach to collaborate with the Vancouver Police Department on:  the safety of Aboriginal youth and women; victim services; relationship-building; cultural awareness; crime prevention; and other community safety concerns.
