August 21, 2024  By Brittani Schroeder



In a recent webinar designed for law enforcement professionals, we explored innovative approaches to reducing unnecessary demand on police resources by addressing root causes and fostering community partnerships.

Deputy Chief Mark Dapat and John Versluis, Manager of Community Safety and Well-Being (CSWB) at Peel Regional Police, delved into their strategy, which includes specialized mental health units, youth crime prevention initiatives, and proactive community engagement. These efforts aim to mitigate recurring incidents involving high-frequency individuals, thereby optimizing resource allocation and enhancing overall community safety.

Whether you are exploring similar initiatives or looking to enhance your current practices, this webinar offers valuable insights and practical strategies applicable to various policing contexts.
