Equity, Diversity & Inclusion

The OPS and the Ottawa Police Services Board (OPSB) are committed to fostering a police service that both residents of Ottawa and OPS members can be proud of – one that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve, respects the unique skills and abilities of every OPS member, and provides services to the community in a bias-free and professional manner.

Our commitment to improving Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) – both within the OPS and in our service delivery to the Ottawa community – is strong, and the need is essential. While we now have a dedicated EDI team to oversee the strategy, change must occur at all levels within the OPS and across all functions. Community engagement and stakeholder feedback are also vital to the process, providing valuable input into the plan.
