Youth Making Positive Choices

This Abbotsford Police Department initiative is designed to engage and empower youth to make positive life choices. The program was developed by the Abbotsford Police Department in collaboration with Abbotsford School District #34 and other community partners and is designed to educate young people on the potential dangers associated with their decision making.

K9 Program

In 2019 we purchased four Kevlar protective vests for the police dogs who are partnered with AbbyPD officers. We also launched a pilot “K9 Retirement Program” to help defray costs for veterinary, food and insurance for the retired police service dogs. The pilot program was a success that in 2020 it became a permanent initiative that we will continue to fund.
