The following presentations were developed in response to community interest and to address safety concerns.
Many members of the business community have expressed a need for themselves and their staff to learn more about Edmonton's vulnerable and homeless population as shelters and supportive housing moves into new neighbourhoods. The Neighbourhood Empowerment Team (NET) in partnership with the Mustard Seed will be facilitating the Encouraging Positive Interactions' information session.
This session will help attendees to:
The Neighbourhood Empowerment Team (NET), the Edmonton Police Service Community Engagement Team and the Community Standards Peace Officers invite you to be part of the conversation on business safety where we talk about crime and social disorder concerns that are impacting your workplace (business). This presentation will help you to have an increased understanding of what contributes to business safety. You will also learn about some crime prevention strategies that you can use to protect your business (property) and keep your customers and employees safe.
Some of these strategies are based on the principles of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED), with a focus on modifying the physical and social environments to maintain safety. CPTED is a proven strategy used by various police departments and crime prevention specialists around the world.
Although there can be factors outside of our control that can impact how safe we feel, there are also strategies we can use in and around our homes that can increase our sense of safety. This presentation will provide information on factors that contribute to crime, ways to protect your property, who you should report concerns to and why reporting is important. The main focus will be on single family residences with special attention on back alleys.
The virtual presentation will be approximately one hour with additional time for questions.
