Crime Prevention Programs

Richmond RCMP works closely with community volunteers, local residents and businesses to increase public awareness and preparedness in response to crime or perceptions of crime in a specific geographic area.

Using crime analytics as an indicator, we devise special crime prevention projects that pro-actively target emerging crime trends.
