Are you interested in shaping a police service to better serve members of BIPOC, underserved and diverse communities? The new Chiefs Community Council is not intended to be a “Diversity Council” but rather, it will be guided by those who experience marginalization, racism and discrimination.

- Providing advice and recommendations to a large organization
- Considering diverse perspectives
- Implementing new policies in a large organization
- Developing and implementing work plans
- Collaborative decision making
- Monitoring, reporting and evaluating outcomes

Meet Our Members
The Chief’s Community Council (CCC) is an advisory council consisting of community members; whose voices, opinions and experiences will assist in shaping the policies and practices of the EPS. Throughout past EPS’ engagement initiatives, common themes of transparency and accountability have emerged as fundamental pillars to effective and meaningful change. Therefore, transparency regarding “who” is advising the EPS is equally as vital as to “what” change the EPS is implementing.
