The Greater Sudbury Police will be holding session eight of the Crime Prevention Academy on Monday, April 7, from 6-8 pm in the Council Chambers at Tom Davies Square.
The topics for this Session are: Cyber proofing and Road Rage.
The final session will be held on April 14, at which time traffic related topics will be presented; a graduation will also take place recognizing the participation of the attendees.
The Crime Prevention Academy course is free and opened to citizens from all walks of life. Crime Prevention Academy graduate students will find the course valuable in assisting them to develop safe and secure habits and lifestyles. Graduates will also be able to share their knowledge with family, friends and colleagues or might want to use their knowledge in organizing workshops and awareness sessions in their own neighbourhoods and communities.
The Crime Prevention Academy program will be tied in to the Community Watch program, which is a web program designed to keep the citizens in touch with what is going on in their neighbourhood. The program will be similar to Neighbourhood Watch but with a 21st century operating method via voice digital messaging and online web alerts. The Community Watch program is set to launch in the fall.
