7 SENIOR ABUSE AWARENESS On behalf of myself, Council, and staff, the City of Charlottetown wishes to congratulate the Prince Edward Island Police Association on their 33rd Annual Crime Prevention Guide, which focuses on Senior Abuse Awareness. The information made available through the publication of this guide contributes to a broader sense of community safety, health, and well-being. One of the essential services that governments must provide is an attentive concern for the well-being of senior residents. Charlottetown City Council recently approved the City’s new Strategic Plan (2022 to 2026) – a community for everyone. During the Community Engagement phase of this plan, we heard from many older adults in our community. Developing a safe and secure community was among the top priorities for residents of Charlottetown. As your Mayor and Council, we hear what is important to senior residents, and we appreciate the PEIPA’s vital role in contributing to this shared responsibility of creating safe and secure communities. With this guide, the PEIPA shows a clear commitment to keeping residents safe and informed. Their dedicated and community-focused approach is necessary to build trust, share resources, and maintain public safety. I sincerely thank the Prince Edward Island Police Association for their role in making Prince Edward Island a safe and enjoyable place to live. Yours sincerely, Philip Brown Office of the Mayor City of Charlottetown Birthplace of Confederation Canada MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR OF CHARLOTTETOWN
