The Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police (OACP) Committees, Sub-Committees and Working Groups are a conduit to converse (both electronically and in person), share ideas, and cooperatively create solutions to meet the challenges facing police leadership in Ontario. With a committed and active committee structure, the Committee Chairs/Co-Chairs may develop public policies/resource documents/guidelines, training, and other factors that will assist policing in Ontario.

Why OACP Committees?

What type of work do OACP Committees undertake?
The OACP Committees, Sub-Committees and Working Groups act as vehicles through which senior police executives and subject matter experts come together to develop policies, positions on important public policy issues. They have also become vehicles for education and information sharing.
How do OACP Committees fit into the overall mission of the OACP?
The overall mission of the OACP Committees, Sub-Committees and Working Groups is to assist the OACP Board of Directors carry out certain responsibilities. These groups assist the Board by preparing policy alternatives and implications on issues impacting policing for Board discussion.
How are OACP Committees structured?
The OACP Committees are aligned under a Five-Pillar structure and the positional responsibility of each of the Pillar is assigned to three (3) of the OACP Vice Presidents, OACP Secretary-Treasurer, and OACP Executive.
What is the definition of the OACP Committees, Sub-Committees and Working Groups? 

OACP Committees are a permanent committee which meets regularly and decides on next steps for issues under its purview.

OACP Sub-Committees are a permanent or long-term group that has a specific mandate or expertise for the purpose of providing support to the particular committee that it reports to.

Working Groups are a temporary group that exists only as long as required to complete a specific task. 

Who sits on OACP Committees? 
OACP Constitution Article 8.1 states that the Board may appoint members to Committees and Task Forces to manage certain activities of the Association and report to the Board.
How do I become a member of an OACP Committee?
