NEWS RELEASE
NIAGARA REGIONAL POLICE
************************
At the Niagara Regional Police Service (NRPS), we’re committed to building stronger relationships with our community by enhancing transparency, accountability, and trust in policing.

That’s why, along with the Regional Municipality of Niagara Police Service Board, we are exploring the use of Body-Worn Cameras (BWCs)—a modern tool; designed to benefit both officers and the public.

We want to hear from you.

Your input matters as we determine how this technology fits into the future of policing in Niagara.

Join the Conversation

We’re hosting Community Open Houses to discuss key topics, including:

Public & Officer Safety – Enhancing security while promoting responsible policing.

Privacy & Data Protection – Safeguarding personal information and ensuring ethical data use.

Community Trust & Engagement – Strengthening connections between police services and residents.

Transparency & Accountability – Supporting impartial policing through recorded interactions.

This is your opportunity to ask questions, share your thoughts, and be part of shaping a safer, more accountable future for Niagara.
