Consultation has concluded
The City of Hamilton and community partners have developed a Community Safety and Well-Being (CSWB) Plan for Hamilton. Hamilton’s Community Safety and Well-Being Plan was unanimously adopted by Hamilton City Council on June 23, 2021. Review the plan here.
Under the Province's Safer Ontario Act, 2018 municipalities are required to develop a Community Safety & Well-being Plan using the provincial government’s Community Safety and Well-Being Framework.
A Community Safety and Well-Being Plan aims to create the community conditions where:
Everyone is safe and has a sense of belonging
Everyone has access to services; and
Individual and families can meet their needs for education, health care, food, housing, income, and social and cultural expression.
Hamilton’s Community Safety and Well-Being Priorities
Community partners identified six local priorities for further investigation and collaboration that are included in Hamilton’s Community Safety and Well-Being Plan. These priorities are:
hate incidents
violence
mental health and stigmatization
substance use*
homelessness and access to affordable housing
access to income
*Community engagement and service collaboration is happening through Hamilton’s Drug Strategy. To find out more about what Hamilton is doing to address substance use visit www.hamilton.ca/drugstrategy.
