Investigative Support Services provides qualified specialized investigators to support the Niagara Regional Police Divisions in solving crimes, identifying crime trends and the reduction of criminal activities.

The three specialized areas of Investigative Support Services are:

  1. Special Investigative Services
  2. Special Victims Units
  3. Major Crime

An Inspector oversees these areas and meets regularly with the Staff Sergeants of these areas. Together they plan how best to use their resources within the specialized areas, to achieve annual Service goals and objectives.

Investigators within Investigative Support Services are trained to comply with Ontario Major Case Management Standards and conduct all investigations in compliance with The Campbell Commission Report. As well, Investigative Support Services offers specialized training to officers to improve their investigative abilities on a yearly basis. These training opportunities provide valuable experience and allow for a variety of assignments.
