Purpose and role of the Mission Crime Prevention Office (CPO)
The Mission Crime Prevention Office (CPO) strives to embrace proactive prevention strategies and programs along with problem solving initiatives. We continue to work with the downtown Business Association, Block Watch Captains, International Crime Free Association, ICBC and other community partners. We work to provide contacts and referrals and explore options for resolutions. We have a close relationship with the Mission RCMP which allows us to monitor crime trends that can be shared with the public and these crime trends also assist us in our crime prevention strategies. There is one full-time City of Mission Employee that serves as the Crime Prevention Coordinator, who oversees the delivery of the various crime prevention programs and supports the dedicated volunteers that work in the various crime prevention programs.
It should be noted that the Mission Crime Prevention Office is not a Community Police Office.
