Gang Awareness and Prevention (GAP) project for Indigenous communities – Assiniboia Times
July 2, 2020
Onion Lake RCMP released gang awareness and prevention resources in partnership with Onion Lake Cree Nation. Materials include videos, an information booklet and posters on July 2.
The Gang Awareness and Prevention (GAP) Project was developed and implemented by a RCMP Community Program Officer, in consultation with several community members, including chief and council, elders, youth, parents, former gang members and service providers.
The information booklet and posters are available in English, French, Cree, Michif and Dene with the assistance from community partners in Onion Lake Cree Nation, Île-à-la-Crosse and La Loche.
The project is funded by the Saskatchewan government’s Rural Crime Innovation Fund and resources were showcased at a community event last summer in 2019.
