This project was funded by the Crime Prevention Branch of the Criminal Justice Division, Commonwealth Attorney-General's Department.
On 12 November 2024, 9 projects were recognised for their contribution to the prevention of crime and violence in Australian communities.
The awards were held at a ceremony in Parliament House, Canberra. The winners were presented with their awards by the Hon. Mark Dreyfus KC MP, Attorney-General.
Methamphetamine is a drug of concern in Australia, with availability and purity on the rise (ACC 2014). The Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC; formerly Australian Crime Commission; ACC) has identified methamphetamine as presenting a risk to the Australian community in a number of ways, including through its link with engagement in property crime (2015).
Project Vigilance today received a silver award in the police-led category of the 2021 Australian Crime and Violence Prevention Awards (ACVPA).
The ACVPA recognise best practice in the prevention or reduction of violence and other types of crime in Australia and play a vital role in highlighting effective community-based initiatives to prevent crime and violence.
