The police coordinators receiving the tips and the board of directors who facilitate the non-profit charity are considered instrumental and a priceless tool to investigators.

“Crime Stoppers is an award winning program whose success year after year is a testament in helping our communities stay safe,” said Essex County OPP Detachment Commander, Inspector Glenn Miller. “As a partnership based program, it energizes us to not only safe guard what we have, but to support our neighbours and businesses by promoting crime prevention.”

This year’s theme for Crime Stoppers Month is ‘Helping all Communities Stay Safe.’
