A new partnership between the City of Lethbridge, Lethbridge Police Service and The Watch aims to improve outreach services for those living in encampments.
"The encampment team will give notice and we will go in prior to the clean-up and try to offer outreach at that point," said Shane Kisinger, manager of The Watch.
Kisinger says The Watch has been around for five years in the downtown core, helping to establish and build relationships with the unhoused population. But Malcolm says his team has seen higher levels of non-compliance from individuals in encampments compared to last year."Individuals are a little bit more protective of their things, so there's a little more pushback to our team. But our team is trained well in dealing with those circumstances.
