As part of National Volunteer Week (April 10-16), Halifax Regional Police (HRP) is recognizing its volunteers who make many of our community outreach and crime prevention programs possible.
On April 14, at a formal recognition event, HRP will recognize volunteers with Burnside Watch, Citizens on Patrol, Seniors’ Home Safety Program, HRP Youth Program, Neighbourhood Watch, Police Chaplains, Victim Services as well as our internal Employee and Family Assistance Program. Collectively HRP’s volunteers, numbering over 120, contribute in excess of ten thousand hours each year helping to make our community a better place in which to live, work and play.
HRP is always recruiting volunteers. Citizens interested in making a difference in our community are encouraged to visit www.halifax.ca/police/programs/volunteering.php or contact HRP’s Volunteer Programs Coordinator at 490-6976 or hrpvolunteers@halifax.ca.
