www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Thursday, April 4, 2013 | 4 Shred-it event can help guard against identity theft Crime Stoppers of Halton is teaming up with its old partner, Shred-it, to host a Community Shred-it event. It aims to raise funds and promote the safe disposal of personal documents that could potentially be used to steal a person's identity. The shredding of consumers' confidential documents can help protect individuals and businesses against this threat as well as data breaches and other types of fraud. On Saturday, April 13, Crime Stoppers and Shred-it will bring their expertise to Dorval Crossing East (Dorval Drive and North Service Road) and M.M. Robinson High School (Upper Middle and Guelph Line in Burlington) to help people take action and educate them against identity theft and fraud. Shred-it mobile shredding trucks will be onsite from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Consumers are encouraged to bring all the documents they can carry for shredding. Representatives from Crime Stoppers and Shred-it will be on-site and offering tips and advice on how to protect against identity theft. Crime Stoppers is asking for $5 per bag, $10 per banker's box and $15 per large box. Larger quantities are negotiable. Volunteers will also be collecting pennies, so donate your pennies to a good cause before they disappear. All proceeds go to support the local Crime Stoppers of Halton program. Shred-it is an information security company providing document destruction services that ensure the security and integrity of clients' private information. The company operates 140 service locations in 16 countries worldwide, servicing more than 150,000 global, national and local businesses, including the world's top intelligence and security agencies, more than 500 police forces, 1,500 hospitals, 8,500 bank branches and 1,200 universities and colleges.

Crime Stoppers is a not-for profit communitybased charitable organization involving the cooperative efforts of the community, the media and the police in the fight against crime. It encourages the public to call with information concerning crimes that have been committed, are being committed or are about to be committed. Crime Stoppers has become an invaluable investigative tool to police services across Ontario. Buys Teamwork key to program success continued from p.1 ages in the area. "Halton's collaborative approach to physician recruitment is a key factor in the program's success," said Regional Chair Gary Carr. "Working together with our four local municipalities, local hospitals, clinics and community representatives, we are achieving our goal of protecting public health by attracting new physicians to establish and maintain medical practices here in Halton." The report also reveals Halton has retained 74 per cent of its physicians, representing 134 full-time permanent doctors. The statistic takes into account retirements, relocations and physicians who took over family practices since 2003. The Region also continues to support the Halton McMaster Family Health Centre family teaching unit, which will move to its permanent location at Joseph Brant Memorial Hospital in Burlington next year. There are six first-year and five second-year family medicine residents based at the site, with the second-year residents graduating this July. Eight new first-year residents will soon join the program. A list of newly recruited doctors accepting patients across Halton can be found by visiting www. halton.ca/newphysicians.
