TIPS by Peel Crime Stoppers is the first show of its kind! Every Sunday at 12 PM, join your host Julia Vellucci as she takes you in-depth about the Peel Crime Stoppers Organization and their work in the community to create awareness about crime and safety and giving people the tools to protect themselves from all forms of crime.

This show will educate listeners about how Peel Crime Stoppers has been helping the community for over 20 years. Many people may know the name Crime Stoppers, but not everyone knows exactly what they do. Crime Stoppers is a non-profit, community-based charitable program involving the cooperative efforts of the community, the media, and the police in the fight against crime. Crime Stoppers encourages the public to call with information concerning crimes that have been committed, are being committed, or are about to be committed. A civillian-led Board of Directors provides direction as to the financial and promotional activities of the program.

TIPS by Peel Crime Stoppers will help demonstrate the impact they have had in communities not only in Peel region but local communities across North America with the other Crime Stopper chapters.

Every week, TIPS by Peel Crime Stoppers will provide crucial and relevant information in the areas of crime and crime prevention. Tips by Peel Crime Stoppers work in partnership with the Peel Police to ensure our information is up to date and coming directly from the men and women of law enforcement who work in the community every day.

Each week, we want to better inform our listeners with guests affiliated with the areas of crime prevention. Whether it be from Crime Stoppers organization directly, the media, or the police, you won’t want to miss the great insight they have to provide. Lastly, the show will leave you with important tips that will help ensure safety for yourself and your loved ones.Copyright NEWSTALK Sauga 960 AM

This episode acts as a reminder that prevention begins with awareness and that reaching out for help is a sign of strength.While Crime Stoppers is primarily known for anonymous reporting of criminal activity, it also plays an indirect but important role in mental health support. By connecting concerns to appropriate authorities and community resources, Crime Stoppers contributes to broader community safety initiatives that address underlying issues, including mental health crises.
