SYS — Shield Your Sip
This program presented with support from @vancouverpd brings awareness to the criminal actions of drink-spiking
Drink spiking is linked to crimes of sexual assault, a crime that has 90% under-reporting rate.
SYS empowers people through education, community and preventive actions like handing out free drink slip on covers!
Visit strathconacpc.ca for more information

Happy Earth Day! 🌍
Senior Walk and Talk Club — every other Wednesday
Lovely big group today walking around the neighbourhood with our SCPC volunteers,
SWTC allows seniors to make connections, spend time in their neighbourhood and engage in the community regularly. This is important and part of our crime prevention strategy.
A neighbourhood that cares for each other and watches out for another, is a safer one.
Recently, highly realistic counterfeit bills have been circulating the neighbourhood,
If you believe you’ve been given a fake note, first assess the situation to keep yourself safe
+ Be courteous. The person may not be aware of their counterfeit
+ Politely refuse the note and ask for another
+ Inform the VPD or non-emerg of a possible attempt
For more information visit the VPD website or Bank of Canada website under “Counterfeit Prevention”
Every week our wonderful volunteers partner with the VPD and run the SPARK Art program,
This week, we got to create designs for Earth day T-shirts for the @whitecapsfc !
Shoutout to these little creatives!
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month,
For 25 years the National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC) has been running campaigns to raise awareness on sexual violence: “It’s impossible to prevent an issue no one knows about, and it’s difficult to make people aware of a problem without providing a solution.” - NSVRC
This years theme is: Looking Back, Moving Forward; the teal ribbon the visual signifier for this movement.
Visit nsvrc.org for more information of history, prevention and resources,
If you have been a victim of sexual violence, call the following phone lines for support. You are not alone 🩵

🚗📵 March is Distracted Driving Awareness Month
A quick text or notification can wait—but safety on the road cannot. Even a few seconds of distraction can put drivers, passengers, cyclists, and pedestrians at risk.
Let’s commit to safer roads:
✔ Use Do Not Disturb while driving
✔ Set GPS and music before you start
✔ Pull over if you need to text or call
💙 Stay focused. Drive responsibly. Arrive safely.
