CAP stands for Crime
Activity Prevention
Welcome to the CAP website. Our website is
intended to keep the Flamborough community informed about what our Crime
Activity Prevention project did for our community.
CAP was a two-year project that had very specific goals to accomplish each
year. Please browse through our website to learn more about our project. We
worked within the Flamborough community, schools, youth and businesses
to address issues that YOU felt were important for our community as a whole. In
partnership with police, CAP held community meetings to address crime and
crime prevention as well as provide unique programs and solutions for the
community. We worked with the business community to help them address issues and perceptions
around crime and crime related issues. As a resident and business owner of
Flamborough, we needed to work together to create a safe, caring and friendly
community to live, work and play.
National Crime Strategy
The National Crime Strategy is a federally funded program
that enables communities across Canada to develop grassroots activities and
partnerships that will work towards preventing crime from happening.
The government recognizes that action must take place at
the community level. It is the people who live work and play in the community
who understand the area, resources, problems and unique needs of its residents
who can plan proactive activities that will help reduce crime.
The Flamborough Project
The National Crime Prevention Strategy has allocated $64
million to 137 communities across Ontario. Flamborough was successful in its bid
for $50 000 to develop a crime prevention strategy in the year 2005.
