Community safety projects honoured at the Mayor’s Community Safety Awards
Earlier today, Mayor Olivia Chow joined community members and Inspector Roger Caracciolo from the Toronto Police Service (TPS) to celebrate the efforts of nine local community safety and well-being projects at the Mayor’s Community Safety Awards ceremony at Toronto City Hall.
Developed by the City of Toronto’s Task Force on Community Safety, and first presented in 2002, the Mayor’s Community Safety Awards celebrate innovative projects that help build safe communities, in partnership with the TPS.
Three community-led and three youth-led projects were presented with awards and three projects received honorary mentions during the ceremony.
A new category was added this year to recognize seniors-led groups that help build safe communities and acknowledge their contributions to the reduction of violence or the experience of seniors who experience violence in Toronto.
The Community Safety Award winners are:
• BAM Collective - #LetsEmpowerToronto is a community-driven response to gun violence in downtown neighborhoods. This project integrates mental health workshops, art therapy and job opportunities to empower youth and foster safer environments.
• Smile for Sache – This organization’s mission of community-driven proactivity and positivity began following the tragic loss of Abdulaziz Mohamed Dubet to gun violence in Toronto.
• WST Foundation Wellness – Formed and driven by racialized women coming together as a peer support network to empower minority and marginalized families in Etobicoke.
• Engaged Communities – Stars in the Night helps create a safer community by addressing factors contributing to violence. Youth designers with lived experience act as paid volunteers and have an opportunity to contribute positively.
• Friends from the Endz – This production house/multimedia collective highlights stories from Toronto's most resilient neighbourhoods. The group collaborates with the city's vulnerable youth to secure a platform for their stories.
• Y.A.A.A.C.E – Youth mentors run different programs in schools and for youth new to the community such as financial literacy, coding, postsecondary school, trades and STEM. Youth-led workshops focus on good decisions versus bad decisions, community violence, unity, importance of education, poverty and safety.
Three honourable mentions were also awarded:
• Silent Tears community space – community category
• KDE mental health workshops – youth category
• Oakwood Vaughan Oasis for Healthy Aging – senior category
Award recipients received a commemorative certificate and a $1,500 award to support their innovative approaches to addressing safety within their local communities.
