International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) 2014 - Chief Executive Track Presentation
The Saskatchewan Breakthroughs in Community Safety
October 27, 2014 in Orlando, Fla.
Dale McFee (former Chief of the Prince Albert police, now the serving Deputy Minister of Justice, and Past-president of the CACP) and Norm Taylor (Saskatchewan Future of Policing consultant and a senior ministry advisor) will trace the arc of these innovations from rising levels of violence in the province's marginalized communities, to the mobilization of multi-sector agencies to reduce the imminent risk factors that lead to crime and disorder, and to the dramatic crime reductions and social improvements being achieved. They will also invoke economic analyses to demonstrate the impact of these risk-driven methods on the costs of policing and other human services such as health, mental health, child protection and education. In addition, the session will feature updates from two US Police Leaders who are working to apply these emerging models in their own communities. Outgoing President of the Pennsylvania Chiefs of Police Association, Chief Tom King of State College, PA, and incoming President Chief William Kelly of Abington, PA, will outline their early experience to date with mobilizing their multi-sector partners into these collaborative, risk-driven approaches to community safety.
