New Community Counts Project on Crime Prevention

On July 8th, the Honourable Stockwell Day, Minister of Public Safety, along with the Honourable Peter MacKay, Minister of National Defence and Minister of the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, and the Honourable Cecil Clarke, Attorney General and Minister of Justice for Nova Scotia, announced an investment of $148,900 to support a crime prevention project in Nova Scotia. The Community Counts project, sponsored by the Nova Scotia Department of Justice, will gather and assemble data on crime, victimization and related factors to enable communities to access the data they need to put together an evidence-based community safety profile. “Research and data gathered through the Community Counts project will help communities put results-driven programs to work to address crime at its roots,” said Minister MacKay.
