CCE Response Model to Hate Incidents in Alberta

The Response Model for Hate Incidents in Alberta is an initiative led by the Alberta Coalitions Creating Equity (CCE) and funded by the Alberta Human Rights Education and Multiculturalism Fund. The five municipalities of the CCE (Wood Buffalo, Edmonton, Red Deer, Calgary, and Lethbridge) worked together to develop a mechanism for effectively responding to incidents of hate. This model was informed by a provincial-wide survey and various regional focus groups and community engagements.

Beyond Hate: A Resource Toolkit Building A Community Response Plan To Counter Hate

This toolkit and the resources herein are designed to help communities address hate as it arises in their community. It is designed to help community partners identify what hate is, what laws exist, and how it can be addressed through concrete community action, education, prevention and partnerships. It also contains information on how we, as individuals and as collectives, can protect youth and individuals targeted by hate activity. 

 

This toolkit offers step-by-step suggestions for responding to hate and preparing a strategy and plan of action in your community to create inclusive and welcoming neighbourhoods for all citizens. Find out what others are doing, adopt innovative practices and learn about different events that can be held to counter hate.

Alberta Hate/Bias Crime Report

This report explores the incidence of hate crime in communities across Alberta and some of the definitional and data collection issues that impact our ability to understand the scope and nature of hate and bias crime and activity in our province. An overview of hate crime legislation is provided as well as the impact of hate crimes on communities and the experiences of victims and communities targeted by hate crimes. It is clear from an examination of successful prosecutions and a closer look at the groups targeted by perpetrators of hate that a more coordinated and integrated approach to hate crimes is required across the province. This will necessitate a partnership between communities, policing agencies and justice officials. This partnership is needed not only to ensure that hate crimes are reported, responded to appropriately, and recorded to establish trend data but also to ensure that all Albertans, including members of policing and justice agencies, have the education, training and tools they need to recognize and address hate crime and incidents in our communities. Recommendations are made in several areas, including a proposal to amend the criminal code to make it easier to prosecute hate-motivated crime perpetrators.

Combating Hate and Bias Crime and Incidents in Alberta – A Current Responses and Recommendation For The Future

This report was commissioned by the Alberta Hate and Bias Crime and Incidents Committee (now known as Alberta Hate Crimes Committee) in December 2006 to determine the status of hate and bias crimes within Alberta. The Alberta Association of Chiefs of Police has actively participated in this committee and supports its research and findings. The study and conclusions articulate the need for appropriate hate and bias prevention and enforcement responses by all governments serving Albertans.

Alberta Hate Crimes Awareness Day – Activity Guide

Hate crime is a “message crime” designed to strike fear into the heart of a community. These crimes attack democracy, marginalize human rights, and erode multiculturalism; hate crimes are oppressive to all communities and societies. Hate Crime Awareness Day invites individuals, businesses, schools and communities to rally to communicate that hate crime will not be tolerated in their community. We invite you to help us mark and celebrate this important day by organizing an event, discussion, or activity in your community.
