Parent resources - protecting your children

Calgary's children and youth are of great importance to the Calgary Police Service. Crime and violence involving children and youth is a serious concern for families, communities, schools, governments and youth themselves.

We believe that addressing the root causes of youth crime and victimization early on will make a positive, lasting change in the lives of youth and their families. Youth Intervention Programs offered by the Calgary Police Service include: Youth at Risk Development (YARD), Multi Agency School Support Teams (MASST), and The Gateway Initiative.

Report missing children by calling 9-1-1 or the Calgary Police Service non-emergency line at 403-266-1234.
