Building Bridges: ProAction Cops & Kids' Impact on Community and Youth
We are ProAction Cops & Kids - a charitable organization that brings cops and kids together in skill-building and mentoring programs to create trust, respect and safer communities.
Since 1991, we have supported over 2,250 police-led programs throughout the Greater Toronto Area providing over 418,000 under-resourced youth with barrier-free access to skill-building activities and life-changing opportunities.
The success and impact of our programs have led to an increase in demand from our Toronto police partners as well as from other police services. To meet this demand, ProAction expanded into Durham Region (2007), Hamilton (2008), Halton Region (2018) and Peel Region (2021).
“We believe that we could spearhead the creation of the Toronto version (of Monopoly) on a much larger scale as a way of fundraising for multiple charities across the GTA, all of whom had to deal with their own significant challenges over the last two years.”
