Canisius College Department of Public Safety are New York State certified Peace Officers devoted to the safety of the Canisius College Community.
Mission: The Department of Public Safety was established to protect and serve the educational environment of Canisius College, by keeping the environment free from the threat of physical harm, property damage and disruptive activity. We are continuously striving to build and maintain a high level of cooperation between the entire campus community and the Department, attempting to keep a high level of cooperation between the Department and the community surrounding the campus, maintaining positive communication between the Department and other law enforcement agencies, and providing regulatory and other miscellaneous services to assist in the attainment of the goals of the College.
In response to the COVID-19 crisis, SERVPRO came and sanitized all our police vehicles on 5/11/20. A huge thank you to Chris Christodoulides, the general manager of the North Niagara County SERVPRO (Servpro of North Niagara County), for providing this service. We really appreciate everything your company did for us!
In 1962, President John F. Kennedy signed a proclamation which designated May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week in which that date falls as Police Week. Currently, tens of thousands of law enforcement officers from around the world converge on Washington, DC to participate in a number of planned events which honor those that have paid the ultimate sacrifice.
The Memorial Service began in 1982 as a gathering in Senate Park of approximately 120 survivors and supporters of law enforcement. Decades later, the event, more commonly known as National Police Week, has grown to a series of events which attracts thousands of survivors and law enforcement officers to our Nation's Capital each year.
The National Peace Officers Memorial Service, which is sponsored by the Grand Lodge of the Fraternal Order of Police, is one in a series of events which includes the Candlelight Vigil, which is sponsored by the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund (NLEOMF) and seminars sponsored by Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.)
National Police Week draws in between 25,000 to 40,000 attendees. The attendees come from departments throughout the United States as well as from agencies throughout the world. This provides a unique opportunity to meet others who work in law enforcement. In that spirit, the Fraternal Order of Police DC Lodge #1 sponsors receptions each afternoon and evening during Police Week. These events are open to all law enforcement personnel and are an experience unlike any other.
