 Crime
Stoppers is a charitable non-profit organization and community service program, which helps solve and prevent
crime in your neighbourhood. Our chapter covers the areas of Miramichi city, Blackville, Eel Ground, Red
Bank, and Sunny Corner. We are one of 21 local chapters throughout the province managed by a civilian board
of directors who establish policy, raise funds to operate the program, and authorize award payments to Tipsters. We always
welcome new people and would be delighted to have you aboard.
Our Board of Directors meet on the first Tuesday of every month, usually at locations
within the city of Miramichi. Board members are also welcome to attend monthly provincial meetings at RCMP "J"
Division Headquarters in Fredericton.
Potential members are welcome
to sit as a guest during a monthly meeting of Miramichi Crime Stoppers and complete a membership application. All
applicants are subject to an extensive criminal records check authorized by Miramichi Police Force or RCMP District
6 Miramichi. Upon completion of the records check, the current board will make a motion on accepting your application. Rest
assured that having minor infractions, such as a speeding ticket, will not disqualify you for membership with Crime Stoppers. Volunteers are
the lifeblood of the Crime Stoppers organization, and we welcome your participation.
Board membership is a commitment of far more than just
time. Members must give of their energy, talents, and creativity. Crime Stoppers is a charitable organization: board
members are not paid. Their hard work reflects a belief in the philosophy of the program: helping solve crimes and a desire
to see justice done.

Police Force (City of Miramichi). Crime Stoppers is managed by a civilian board of directors who establish policy, raise funds

Crime Stoppers is
an effective world-wide crime-solving organization with the primary objective of combining the resources of the media, law
enforcement and the general public to solve crime. A steadfast principal of Crime Stoppers is the ability to collect
information or “tips” on crime and criminals from citizens. To get
these people involved, and to overcome apathy and indifference, cash awards are offered. To overcome people’s fear of
retaliation, or fear of involvement, we guarantee total anonymity. Media is used to notify the
public of a crime and solicit cooperation in providing information. Law enforcement takes the information and aggressively
investigates; hopefully with a successful conclusion.
Our mission is to develop Crime Stoppers as an effective crime
solving organization throughout New Brunswick, with the primary objective being: helping to stop, solve, and prevent crime
-together.
N.B. Crime Stoppers is a member in good-standing of Canadian Crime Stoppers Association and Crime Stoppers International
