Downtown Winnipeg BIZ is working with partners to improve safety downtown
We know that safety and wellness remains top of mind for downtown businesses, residents and the city’s most vulnerable. The Downtown Winnipeg BIZ is a key partner of the DCSP (Downtown Community Safety Partnership), a new non-profit organization focused on proactively supporting a healthy, safe and connected downtown where everyone feels safe and welcome.
We’re heard from some members that you haven’t seen the folks in red uniforms walking around downtown in awhile and you’re right. Since our Watch team transitioned to the DCSP, they have a brand new look. But, the teams built at the Downtown Winnipeg BIZ are still supporting downtown safety and outreach as they always have. The Watch team is now called CONNECT, CHAT is now called COAR, and there’s a new team, the Mobile Assist and Connect (MAC247) team providing service 24 hours a day. Look for them in their black jackets and bright green toques!
