Programs
The programs listed below are offered through the Safe Schools department:
A partnership with the ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ RCMP, the Next 100 Years program is currently in its fifth year. This program operates primarily at the elementary schools with the Grade 6/7's through weekly presentations and activities centering on culture, identity and community.
PSST is a unique, innovative website designed by ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ in partnership with the ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ RCMP. The website is geared towards ensuring the safety and security of ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ students and their schools.
Since 2015, ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ has been leading an innovative approach to cross-agency collaboration with the ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ Mobilization and Resiliency Table (SMART). The program seeks to address community issues before they become police issues or require other emergency services.
The Substance Use Liaison team provides support and services for youth who are affected by substance use in any aspect of their lives.
The ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ Wraparound Program (WRAP) is a partnership between the ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ School District, RCMP and the City of ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥.
¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ Steps Up is an annual showcase that highlights the positive impacts youth have on the city. Celebrate the amazing things young people are doing by transforming our schools and communities through good deeds, community projects, creating art and more.
SYRP programs support children, youth, and their families by providing services that will help divert young people from gang involvement. Some programs deliver culturally appropriate support to groups while others prioritize targeted neighbourhoods and populations.
