Crime Stoppers is an organization that operates separate from the police, and 911. They encourage community members to speak up, and feel comfortable when providing information regarding crime.

Crime Stoppers branch in Vancouver BC has taken a different approach to bring awareness to the purpose of their organization.

The hashtags #WorldWithoutCrime, #WorldWithoutGangs and #WorldWithoutGuns have been circulating and online viewers are encouraged to tap into the conversation and provide ideas and images on how they envision a World Without Crime.
