The Community Safety division is a GO-TO source of expertise on safety issues of concern to the general public.  Make us your first point of contact for your safety questions!

Our staff also serve on external advisory committees, and coordinate safety campaigns.  Watch our website and social media for postings on seasonal safety issues.

Please note: our annual School Bus Safety Awareness campaign is October 21-25, 2013.   Plans include a contest, police checkpoints, safety information posted in traditional and social media and on the SSNS website.  The goal is to remind the public not to pass a school bus which is stopped to load or unload students.  Children are crossing the street at this time and may be injured or killed by a vehicle that is passing the bus illegally.

More details on this important campaign will be posted soon.  Note: sponsorship opportunities are also available for the fall campaign.  Contact Arminta Kennedy at 902-454-9621, x222 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it for details.
