The purpose of the Community Activation and Safety Committee is to foster & maintain Public Safety within the Bridgeland-Riverside Community for all members of the Community; using the principles of ABCD.

Meeting Schedule: Last Tuesday of the month

Contact: safety@brcacaglary.org

We accomplish this through Community Activation in five areas of focus: 

Education: Provide presentations, workshops, classes, and resources to help Community members learn about Well Being, The Community, and how to create and maintain Public Safety.

Community Activation: Outreach within The Community to connect, support and insure inclusion of all Community Members through a Block Connector based program.

Partnerships: Actively working with agencies and organizations with a presence in The Community to create cooperation, possibilities and economies of scale.

CPTED: Identifying and ameliorating physical locations that negatively impact Public Safety by utilizing and interacting with appropriate City of Calgary departments. Examples include advocating for better lighting, control of overgrown areas that otherwise encourage camping, drug use and trafficking.

Prevention: Ensure all active threats to Public Safety are recognized and reported to the appropriate Service. Work closely with CPS, Peace Officers, By-Law Enforcement, Firefighters, EMS, HELP, Bear Clan, etc.. Participate in Community initiatives such as “Eyes on the Street”.
