This Haldimand radio station was honored for their outstanding support of the Crime Stoppers program over the past several years. Not only does the station help promote the program on an ongoing basis, but in 2009 The Moose approached Crime Stoppers with a unique idea on how to reach their clients. The resulting initiative has become known as the “Crime Stoppers Minute” and sees crime prevention tips being aired several times daily to listeners in an attempt to make their community safer. The segment changes weekly and is designed to educate people on how to protect themselves from becoming the next victim of a crime. The “Crime Stoppers Minute” has been recognized provincially and internationally; and has even been used as a template for the creation of a partnership between one of The Moose’s north sister stations and its local Crime Stoppers program.
