Our strategic direction

The Keeping You Safe Strategy came into effect on 1 July 2023. 

It outlines our vision for a safer community and our mission to keep Victoria safe.

Over the next five years, Victoria Police will deliver its mission through:

  • Policing

    Highly visible and responsive policing.

  • People

    Skilled people, ready and able to respond.

  • Partnerships

    Strong partnerships across community, government and business.

These three focus areas are supported by three goals each that will be realised through a suite of initiatives and projects. 

The benefits delivered by these initiatives will ensure that we continue our efforts to deliver strong outcomes for the Victorian community, in which: 

  • everyone is safe and feels safe 
  • those affected by crime feel supported 
  • those who break the law are held to account 
  • police work with the community and our partners to prevent crime, reduce harm and build a better, safer Victoria.
