Every three years, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) updates their Strategic Plan, and in turn, every detachment develops a new Detachment Action Plan to address local priorities and concerns. Part of the development of the local action plan involves a community consultation phase to gather feedback from the community and our community partners on what they feel should be included in our new action plan.

Have your say in the OPP CKL Detachment's next Action Plan by filling out the quick survey below!

The outcomes we aim to achieve through community engagement are to:

• Understand community concerns and priorities related to safety, law enforcement, and local policing practices.
• Identify key areas for improvement in police-community relations and areas where collaboration can be enhanced.
• Foster open dialogue to encourage mutual understanding and strengthen partnerships between the police and the community.
• Ensure that the action plan is responsive to the needs and expectations of the community, with a focus on addressing both immediate and long-term challenges.
• Empower community members to have a voice in shaping policies and actions that impact their safety and well-being.
• And lastly, to support the local Community Safety and Well-Being Plan by aligning police actions with broader community goals to enhance overall safety and quality of life.
