Thank you to everyone!

To celebrate the tenth anniversary of Partnership in Action (PIA) and mark Police Week 2009 (May 10 – 16), the police service partnered with the Ottawa Police Services Board to host a number of free and informal “Let’s Chat Coffee Shops” with special program assistance from Leadership Ottawa. The PIA Let’s Chat Coffee Shops invited community partners to share and contribute to the business planning process and the future direction of the police service – the Ottawa Police Service 2010-2012 Business Plan.

Over 320 people attended the four very successful coffee shops. The extensive and far reaching outreach strategy brought a diversity of participants to each coffee shop that spanned different ages, gender, race, backgrounds, and abilities to name a few. In addition a number of comments were received online from members of the community who wanted to participate virtually through an online posting forum. Thank you to everyone!
