On the agenda
As the city filed it
Within the context of current discussions related to persistent structural racism within police service nationally and discussions about the reallocation of funds to enable community responses, we, as the Co-Chairs of the Aboriginal Affairs Advisory Committee, would like to table a discussion on possibilities for Indigenous community safety and mental health responses in Toronto. We recognize that a variety of programs and responses may be necessary to improve community safety and responses to mental health concerns for Indigenous communities across Toronto.
