About CPFP Central Park Foot Patrol Inc.
The Central Park community has been experiencing higher levels of violence that are linked to the meth crisis and other causes rooted in poverty and marginalization. A group of concerned neighbourhood residents started organizing in the fall of 2018, with the hope to start a community foot patrol to increase safety in Central Park.
The group incorporated into the CPFP Central Park Foot Patrol Inc. in March 2019, as a non-profit organization whose mission is to enhance the quality of life for residents and visitors in the community, by providing programs, services, and opportunities for social interaction that contribute to the overall well-being and a sense of community to all.
All volunteers receive orientation around Code of Conduct, Policy and Procedure Manual, safe sharps disposal, and incident report writing. Volunteers are eligible to attend paid training, as funding allows, and gain an understanding of community-led safety from a harm reduction and trauma informed lens, as well as experience in community development. Join us!
