The Prince Albert Police Service (PAPS) was formed in 1886 and has grown into a modern and professional agency employing 104 sworn police officers and 26 civilian support staff. Prince Albert is a hub and a destination point for many surrounding towns and First Nations. In order to provide service in this transient environment, the police service has an integrated relationship with the RCMP that allows them to offer a regional response to issues such as drug trafficking, property crime, and illegal weapons and gang activity.
The Prince Albert Police Service also has strong and formal relationships with partners in Health, Social Services, Education, the Metis Nation-Saskatchewan, Prince Albert Indian and Metis Friendship Centre, and the Prince Albert Grand Council. Partnering and mobilizing the community to enhance public safety continues to be a priority.
