Throughout our city, there are a number of great organizations that you may never have heard of that do important work in partnership with the TPS.
These organizations support our community policing model, where the community is a vital partner in our efforts to build safe and healthy neighbourhoods.
One of these is The Gatehouse, a Toronto support centre that provides a safe and comfortable setting for criminal investigations of child abuse. This home-like setting is where child welfare personnel and investigating officers can interview children during abuse investigations.
The Gatehouse is able to do its important work through community grants and fundraising. Recently, after learning that The Gatehouse was facing a challenging financial situation, the Toronto Police Services Board donated $150,000. to this important organization.
