SARGENT BUSINESS COMMUNITY
City-Wide Advocacy. Neighborhood Focus.
The Sargent Business Community (SBC) is a dedicated network of local business owners, operators, and community members standing together to address the urgent safety and security challenges facing commercial districts.
While our primary, hands on focus is the commercial heart of Sargent Avenue, stretching from Century Street to Central Park, including all immediate adjacent streets. Our mission extends to the entire city. Crime, vandalism, and the drug epidemic do not respect neighborhood boundaries. We actively advocate for city wide crime prevention strategies, smarter resource allocation, and real accountability across all of Winnipeg.
Whether you run a decades old family restaurant on Sargent, a retail shop in the West End, or a business anywhere else in Winnipeg, we are fighting for a safer environment where local commerce can thrive.
Recent News
Preschool-aged child sustains serious injuries, 39-year-old charged: R26-38054
A recent press release from the Winnipeg Police Service detailing an aggravated assault on a preschool-aged child in northeast Winnipeg (the 300 block of Thames Avenue) serves as a devastating reminder of the vulnerabilities faced by children in our city.
While this incident occurred outside our immediate commercial district, we know that family violence, extreme stress, and child abuse are systemic issues that affect every corner of Winnipeg, including our own West End families, customers, and staff.
As community advocates, we believe safety must extend past our storefronts and into our homes. If you are struggling, or if you suspect a child in your neighborhood is experiencing abuse or neglect, please do not stay silent. There is help available.
Immediate Help & Reporting Resources:
- Child and Family Services (CFS) Joint Intake Unit: 204-944-4200 (To report suspected abuse or neglect)
- Klinic Crisis Line: 204-786-8686 (Free, confidential 24/7 counseling)
- In an Emergency: Always dial 911 immediately.
Let’s look out for one another and protect the youngest members of our community.
