TPS YOUTH PROGRAMS

Youth in Policing Initiative (YIPI)


The Youth in Policing Initiative is an after school program created in recognition of the importance of providing support and employment opportunities for young people all year round. This employment initiative focuses on diverse youth between the ages of 15 and 18 years, living in priority identified neighbourhoods in Toronto.


The aim of the Youth in Policing Initiative is to promote youth participation in and exposure to the work environment through diverse, educational, and productive work assignments. This program also enhances the link between the police and the local community, providing young people with an opportunity to develop job skills while fostering positive partnerships with the Toronto Police Service.

Adult & Youth Corps Volunteers

The Adult & Youth Corps Volunteer Program is a Toronto Police Service initiative designed to build a working relationship between the public and the police. Its aim is to attract volunteers who are motivated to work actively within their community and represent the Toronto police in both a pleasant and professional manner.

This program assigns volunteers to work alongside Community Response Unit officers in their local division. Volunteers are required to wear a TPS issued golf shirt and identification when on duty.
