The Medicine Hat Crime Stoppers Program has been in existence since 1982. Crime Stoppers, through its relationship with the Police Service, Public and Media, provides an indispensable service. Without Crime Stoppers and the guarantee of anonymity it provides to those who call in or submit tips, many Criminal cases would go unsolved. To ensure its success, Crime Stoppers depends on donations from individuals and corporations. Thanks to the tremendous support the program has received, Crime Stoppers has been truly successful.

The Media: Crime Stoppers methods, objectives, successes and phone numbers are publicized on a regular basis by the media. In Medicine Hat, for example, ....
The Police: A special Crime Stoppers phone with a well-publicized number is provided to the community. Callers are assigned a special Code number and NEVER give their names. If, after the investigation, the information leads to an arrest, the caller is entitled to a reward.
Tipsters can also submit their tips online while continuing to remain anonymous.
