Welcome to Crime Stoppers of Halton
Crime Stoppers is a CIVILIAN, NON PROFIT, CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION that brings together, in a tri-parte relationship, the police services of a community, the media, and the community itself in the fight against crime. Crime Stoppers provides citizens with a vehicle to anonymously supply the police with information about a crime or potential crime of which they have knowledge - TIPSTERS REMAIN ANONYMOUS to both Crime Stoppers and Police Services. CASH REWARDS of up to $2000.00 are offered to people who call the program and their information leads to an arrest. Tipsters are never required to meet police or appear/testify in court.
