Our Mandate

Our mission is to create meaningful partnerships with our communities and the Toronto Police Service; through trust, transparency, understanding, and shared knowledge, to improve safety and security within our communities.

All of the 17 police divisions throughout the City of Toronto, including Traffic Services, have a CPLC to provide advice and assistance to the local unit commander and to work in partnership with local police officers towards improving safety and security in local communities.

Our goal is to work together in identifying, prioritizing and problem-solving local policing issues by being proactive in community relations, crime prevention, education, mobilization, and communication. All of this is achieved by acting as a resource to the police and the community.

We are actively engaged in efforts to enhance community safety. This requires encouraging residents to be forthcoming in providing information to the police and to promptly report crimes when they occur. Our involvement also includes participation in activities such as youth-oriented crime prevention projects, education and awareness.

The 53 Division Community Police Liaison Committee (CPLC) is made up of community volunteers and police service representatives from neighbourhoods across North West Toronto. Our committee is inclusive to reflect the demographics of the local community.
