Bell Let's Talk Day 2025

Today, we join millions across Canada in supporting mental health awareness and breaking the stigma surrounding mental illness. At the Abbotsford Police Department, we understand the importance of mental health and are committed to fostering a supportive and compassionate community.

Mental health affects us all, and it's crucial to have open conversations and provide support to those in need. Remember, it's okay to ask for help, and there are resources available to support you.

Let's come together to create a culture of understanding and empathy. Every action counts, whether it's a conversation, a text, or a social media post. Together, we can make a difference.

Annual qualifications are a must! Thank you to the @AbbyPoliceDept training section for keeping us safe and trained up. In a training environment, I was trying to pick up my speed while staying as accurate as possible (that's my excuse for the one off target). #abbypd

Last year @AbbyPoliceDept officers apprehended 785 persons under the Mental Health Act deemed a danger to themselves or others. Last night 2 #AbbyPD members in violent altercation while waiting with MH patient & blood spat on their faces. #Courage #Respect
