Your VicPD Strategic Plan

The face of the moon was in shadow

Almost before we knew it, we had left the ground. All their equipment and instruments are alive.Mist enveloped the ship three hours out from port. The spectacle before us was indeed sublime.A red flair silhouetted the jagged edge of a wing.

Community Engagement:
The Foundation of Strategic Plan 2020

The foundation of VicPD’s Strategic Plan 2020 is engagement. This plan can only be successful if it is a true and meaningful reflection of our community and our own workforce. To that end, we embarked on a comprehensive engagement effort to hear from a wide range of community groups to make sure we understood the issues that matter most to the people we serve. We also listened to the women and men from our own organization about the opportunities and challenges associated with providing policing services to Victoria and Esquimalt, and how to best implement our strategic objectives in a practical and sustainable way. Finally, we consulted the latest research regarding performance metrics for policing in Canada to ensure we could effectively measure success against our goals on an ongoing basis.
