General Information

Where is the conference?

The conference is taking place in Victoria BC, on the lands of the Songhees First Nation and the Xwespsum First Nation, at the Victoria Conference Centre.

Is there a virtual option?

Unforunately no, but we hope you’re able to make a trip out of your visit to Victoria! There is so much to offer, and we are confident that this conference is worth the trip.

What is the conference theme? Why is the name “Spark and shift”?

Cities across North America are facing community safety challenges. This conference will bring together leaders to spark new ideas, and inspire shifts in the way we respond to community safety and wellbeing challenges. We hope participants will leave with a renewed energy and a series of tools to help spark new shifts in their own communities.

I think I have a perspective that is worth sharing with conference attendees. Who do I talk to about being a speaker?
