Citizens On Patrol Program
The City of Steinbach is looking for volunteers for the Citizens on Patrol Program (COPP). COPP is a crime prevention program where community members act as extra "eyes and ears" of the community and for the RCMP. The goal is to improve safety in the community through deterrence, education and awareness.
We are looking for individuals who...
- Are interested in making a difference in our community (you don't have to be a resident to volunteer)
- Have been looking for a way to get involved in our community
- Are interested in volunteering a few hours a month to help keep the community safe
Read an interview with Paul Peters, a COPP volunteer, to get a first-hand account of what the program entails.
Interested individuals will be required to complete a Volunteer Application and pass a criminal check. Both documents are available for downloading below or can be picked up at City Hall, 225 Reimer Avenue. COPP members will receive training and be scheduled for patrol. Patrol shifts are extremely flexible to fit your schedule.
Questions may be directed to Laurie McLean at (204) 320-2911.
