In the pursuit of making Edmonton the safest large city in Canada, Edmonton Police Service is working to engage citizens at every level. Through the work of the Equity, Diversity and Human Rights Section, EPS is reaching out to those parts of the community that they may not have been as close to the in the past – recent migrants, the homeless, and aboriginal communities. Through outreach events, public meetings, and training EPS officers in bias awareness and cultural safety, policing is becoming more efficient and effective, and it’s people more likely to reach out to the police, making it a better place to live for everyone.
