Published purpose

This project will enhance community-based policing services to the Inuit communities of Makkovik, Rigolet, Nain and Hopedale, by funding one (1) Community Safety Officer (CSO) per community and improve on community connection, including the relationship between Inuit community members and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). The Community Safety Officers act as liaisons between local community members and the RCMP to ensure police response considers culture and traditions.
