In the spotlight

Did you know

We fund on average about 300 crime prevention projects per year. Public Safety Canada's National Crime Prevention Centre provides funding to selected projects that contribute to preventing and reducing crime in Canada.

Crime prevention

Public Safety Canada's National Crime Prevention Centre (NCPC) is responsible for implementing the National Crime Prevention Strategy (NCPS). Our work provides national leadership on effective and cost-effective ways to prevent and reduce crime by intervening on the risk factors before crime happens. Our approach is to promote the implementation of effective crime prevention practices.

We work closely with partners and stakeholders in the provinces and territories to develop and implement results-driven programs that target specific crime issues in regions and communities across Canada. We provide communities with tools, knowledge and support to undertake crime prevention initiatives in communities large and small across Canada.
