Citizens on Patrol

Citizens On Patrol (COP) is a group of community members who participate in a community-based crime prevention program in co-operation with the Stl’atl’imx Tribal Police Service. Through observation, documentation and reporting, members of COP provide a presence in their community while patrolling by vehicle, foot and bicycle. COP members increase the awareness of suspicious and dangerous or unusual activities happening in the community. Members are trained to use safe practices at all times. They act as the extended “eyes" and "ears” of the Stl’atl’imx Tribal Police Service.
