Program Activity: Crime Prevention
Name of Transfer Payment Program: National Crime Prevention Strategy (NCPS)
Start date: 1998-99
End date: Ongoing
Description: The National Crime Prevention Strategy, which is administered by the National Crime Prevention Centre (NCPC) in collaboration with the provinces and territories, provides national leadership on effective and cost-efficient ways to prevent and reduce crime by addressing known risk factors in high-risk populations and places. The NCPC works in close collaboration with key partners, including police, academics, and communities, to support the development and implementation of evidence-based crime prevention projects, and the dissemination and use of practical knowledge.
Expected results: It is expected that activities under the NCPS will lead to positive changes in risk and protective factors related to offending, particularly among high-risk children and youth; youth at risk of gang involvement; youth at risk of drug involvement; and high risk offenders returning to the community. Ultimately, it is expected that these changes will lead to a reduction in offending among these targeted populations.
