President's Community Safety Leadership Awards

The President's Community Safety Leadership Awards recognize York community members who are contributing to making York a leading university in safety.

The purpose of the awards is to raise awareness of the important work that safety champions are doing at York, to provide much deserved recognition of their work, and to inspire others to become involved in safety initiatives on York’s campuses.

The awards will recognize individuals and groups that are helping to build a safety culture where everyone is involved in safety, looking out for one another, reducing safety risks and acting on potentially unsafe situations.

Awards will be given out each year. There will be individual awards for outstanding leadership from students, staff and faculty as well as team awards.
