The Canadian Police Research Centre (CPRC) is a partnership between the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police (CACP), the RCMP, and the National Research Council (NRC) of Canada. The CPRC strives to ensure that the interests of the Canadian police community are best served with the available resources. The ultimate objective is to ensure that CPRC expenditures result in the timely transfer of technology to the police user for greater safety, increased efficiency and effectiveness. This report describes the many ongoing initiatives and projects of CPRC: health and safety (protecting the police in hazardous situations); operational effectiveness (fighting crime, gathering information, intelligence and evidence); and protecting the public (traffic, custody, crime prevention).
