About Us
ONGIA is a non-profit organization that is committed to addressing the street gang phenomenon. ONGIA consists of law enforcement professionals and members of the criminal justice community throughout Ontario, Canada and North America.
ONGIA encourages its members to network with their community to better educate everyone about gang prevention, education and suppression.
ONGIA is committed to educating youth, parents, school
officials, social workers and the community on gang related
issues.
ONGIA membership is open to sworn members of law enforcement
agencies at present. This includes but is not restricted to
police officers, probation officers, corrections officers,
immigration officers and customs officers. The Ontario Gang
Investigators Association works countless volunteer hours to
deliver and maintain their training on gang related issues.
ONGIA is an important part of a greater law enforcement
network within North America. We would be remiss not to thank
the East Coast Gang Investigators Association, MAGLOCLEN and the
National Alliance of Gang Investigators Associations for their
continued support and leadership. The assistance and expertise
that they offer on the topic of criminal street gangs is
unparalleled anywhere in the world.
