Join us in beautiful Canmore….

Soaring peaks, shimmering lakes and abundant wildlife! Come unwind, discover, and join the conversation at our 2019 Annual Crime Prevention Conference.

We are so excited to be hosting our upcoming conference in Canmore — a picturesque setting that we believe will set the stage for an enriching networking and learning experience.

This year’s theme “Together for a Safer Tomorrow” will bring together inspiring voices for change in community safety. Through enriching presentations, workshops, networking events and more, you will hear compelling stories and learn from those who have had a genuine impact on changing peoples’ lives.

The conference will be held from May 6 – 9, 2019 at the Coast Canmore Hotel & Conference Centre—including optional one or two-day Pre-Conference Training Workshops taking place on May 6 & 7.

The conference aims to bring together professional experts, community members, business owners, government and law enforcement to illustrate the importance of knowledge, collaboration and partnership within our communities.

Get Inspired. Visit Canmore.

We hope to see you there! We promise, you will leave inspired, encouraged, recharged and ready.

2019 ACCPA CONFERENCE IN BEAUTIFUL CANMORE, ALBERTA Thank You for Your Support!

Successful crime prevention takes the entire community to become engaged. ACCPA is the hub for Alberta to share best practices in crime prevention between community members & organizations, government and law enforcement.

This years’ conference brought together ACCPA members, partners and experts, many of whom are engaged in crime prevention initiatives across Alberta, with a focus on how we can come together as a group and collaborate to help prevent crime in Alberta. The ACCPA 2019 Conference in beautiful Canmore, Alberta was a great success with over 200 delegates attending some part of the conference. Our thanks to everyone who participated and made this such a great event.

Planning is already underway for the ACCPA 2020 Conference. Mark your calendars for May 4-7 in Edmonton. The conference will be held at the Delta Edmonton South Hotel and Conference Centre. We hope to see you there!

“Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.”
