Shoplifting Education Service

June 21, 2025 -

This service differs from a victim awareness service in that it deals specifically with shoplifting as a criminal act and not just an action against another person/group/organization. This service consists of an initial assessment with each person referred to the service. This is followed by a group session and a follow up contact one month after the group session. The group session does have aspects of awareness of the victim but is primarily concerned with shoplifting as an act that it wrong and must cease. Presentations at this session are made by a representative merchant or merchant association that that provides hard data about shoplifting and its effects for the merchant. Funded by the Ministry of Children and Youth Services.
