Our Toronto Police Services are actively taking steps to protect seniors in our community.
The Toronto Police Services have developed a Vulnerable Persons Registry which is a voluntary database with information that can benefit first responders.

In addition, the Toronto Police Service Seniors Community Consultative Committee developed these 2 great resources with support and input from WEL Partners:
