The Medicine Hat Police Service Community Support Unit (CSU) consists of the School Resource Officer (SRO) program, the Call Centre, and is responsible for a variety of local special events and community engagement.

The SROs provide a visible police presence in some of our local schools and work with students, families, guardians, staff, support services, and administrators to provide a safe environment for everyone while building a positive relationship between youth and police.
