Welcome!
Welcome to the Waterloo Regional Block Parent® Program!
The Waterloo Regional Block Parent® Program is a registered charity and is part of Canada's largest volunteer-run child safety oriented organization. Over 300,000 volunteers from coast to coast help to make communities safer for everyone.
We hope you will take a look around and learn more about this important community safety program.
And, it's not just for children! Seniors are a vital part of our community and we have programs that deliver the message of safety to our Senior community as well. From street safety to safety at home - there is something for everyone. Seniors also make great Block Parents!
The Waterloo Regional Block Parent® Program serves Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge and the surrounding communities that make up Waterloo Region. We are proud to work with the Waterloo Regional Police Service, our local school boards, parents and teachers and all our community partners to spread the message of safety in our communities.
What's Inside
Use the navigation bar near the top of this page to explore our site. Here's a preview of what you'll find and where you'll find it!
Becoming A Block Parent®: Some great information if you are wondering how to volunteer with the Block Parent® Program as a window sign holder! You will also find a link to the application form that you can conveniently fill out online, then print off at your own home.
Volunteer: You can get involved without being a window sign holder! Everything from participating as an event volunteer to sitting on the Board of Directors is covered here. And, if you have questions - we're just an email click away!
Links & Sponsors: This is important to us because without the generosity of sponsors, both nationally and locally, our program simply couldn't survive. We are very grateful to have solid partnerships in our community - companies, organizations (but most importantly... people) that are as enthusiastic about community safety as we are. See who they are and tell them "Block Parents" sent you.
Most Importantly...
We want to hear from you!
If you can display a Block Parent® sign in your window, for even 30 minutes through the course of a week - we want to hear from you.
If you would like to volunteer running an event, working on a committee or serving on the Board of Directors (as a trainee or voting member) - we want to hear from you.
If you would like to see the Block Parent® Program in your community - speaking at schools, seniors centers or community events - we want to hear from you.
And, if you believe that YOUR community should be a safe place to live, work and play - we want to hear from you.
