About Youth COP

Youth COP is an award-winning, Youth-developmental, leadership program that aims to equip and empower youth in secondary schools to be crime-prevention ambassadors along with our partners in the Neighbourhood Police Centres and schools. Youth COP seeks to serve, protect and care for youth in schools and communities with the hopes of reducing youth offending and delinquency through education, engagement and contribution. Our Youth COP leaders are trained by the program's workers and Police Officers to spot signs of crime, to engage and educate their peers and public to deter crime. Youth COP uses a range of methodologies to develop and support our youth leaders to be the best version of themselves and to maximize their potential as youth crime-prevention leaders.
