Welcome to the Crime Prevention Ottawa (CPO) website! Let us help you find your way around: 

CPO’s newest resource, the Neighbourhood Toolkit provides a wealth of information for how to get involved in your community and how to promote community safety with your family and your neighbours. You can learn how to organize a block party or community clean-up, how to deal with by-law issues like noise or animals, and who to call for help when you need it, among many other things. Find out more at:
