The North Vancouver RCMP recognizes today as the International Volunteer Day for Economic and Social Development, or commonly referred to as International Volunteer Day as mandated by the UN General Assembly. Volunteering represents a commitment to one's community and society in all aspects in such a selfless nature, often expecting nothing in return. This is the exact type of commitment that volunteers for the North Vancouver RCMP embody; a selfless desire to ensure the safety of the public and betterment of our community.

It is difficult how to put into words how much of an impact volunteers at the North Vancouver RCMP make. As of this date, North Vancouver RCMP volunteers have spent approximately 919 hours in 2022 alone in service for their community. This number cumulatively totals 122 working days divided amongst approximately fifteen volunteers from various professional and cultural backgrounds. Each volunteer brings their own level of expertise, life experience and set of values which provides for a diverse and rewarding experience. Throughout our several volunteer initiatives which involve road safety, administration, proactive evening patrols with our Citizen's Crime Watch Program, and the North Vancouver RCMP's BusinessLink Program, volunteers have shown their commitment to their community's welfare and have embodied the RCMP's core values of Integrity, Respect, Compassion, Responsibility and Excellence.

Our North Vancouver volunteers are truly priceless. Their commitment to community and goodwill is genuine. Whether it be keeping our roads safe, or assisting the RCMP in it’s crime prevention and public safety strategies, these volunteers exemplify the very best in our community with dedication that we can all learn from.

For this the North Vancouver RCMP say Thank You!
