The Canadian Police Research Centre (CPRC) has been instrumental in helping Canada build a distinguished record of increasing public safety through science and technology, across Canada and abroad. From geographic profiling, to cutting edge forensic analysis tools, to protecting children from predators, the CPRC and its partners have added a new dimension to preventing and addressing criminal acts.

Led by the Defence Research and Development Canada's (DRDC) Centre for Security Science, the CPRC's mission is to provide leadership and focus for science and technology in policing and public safety across Canada through research, development, standards, evaluation, and commercialization.

The CPRC depends on on-going collaboration with over 270 organizations, which includes the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, the National Research Council, and other police, fire, and emergency medical services professionals, researchers, and industry. Such co-operation allows the CPRC to disseminate technologies and policing practices on a trusted basis with all key players.
