This two-stage project involves publishing a Yukon-specific resource on Red Flag laws and implementing an outreach program focused on rural and remote communities in Canada’s North. The initiative will use informative workshops and both physical and digital materials to ensure broad access. To maintain impact beyond the workshops, the project will provide ongoing access to information on Red Flag laws throughout Yukon.
Organization:
Public Safety Canada
Expected Results:

The project’s immediate outcomes focus on increasing knowledge and understanding of Canada’s public safety and emergency management systems by providing accessible information to the public and service providers about available protections for vulnerable individuals. Intermediate outcomes include improving public education and confidence in Canada’s justice and emergency systems by ensuring individuals know about and can access these protections. The project will also strengthen the capacity of not-for-profit organizations by providing plain-language resources that reduce barriers to justice and foster stronger community networks. Ultimately, the project aims to create a safer, more secure, and resilient Canada by equipping people with knowledge of the justice system and its protections, enabling effective access and building trust in its functionality.
