Up-Stream Prevention - A Virtual (Re)Thinking Series

The Waterloo Region Crime Prevention Council has focused for many years on identifying and offsetting the root causes of crime. Moving forward they want to address the more foundational structures and harms under those root causes, moving upstream to the source, instead of treating the subsequent results farther downstream.

What does harm mean: harm encompasses social, economic, psychological and environmental injury or damage inflicted on individuals, communities and society either intentionally or unintentionally.

The Waterloo Region Crime Prevention Council hosts an ongoing series of events discussing upstream prevention concepts and strategies from various perspectives aiming at (re)thinking communities, safety and prevention.

All events will be virtual and free.
