The Prince Albert Police Service’s Women’s Commission has launched a new logo and challenge coin on this, International Women’s Day.

Challenge coins are used by many organizations and groups to represent values and priorities, and are often collected by those in public safety and military roles. Challenge coins often represent significant achievements, and are shared with those from other agencies as a show of respect.

The outer edge of the coin includes the Women’s Commission mission as Voices of Change and priorities, including partnerships, community, and balancing trust. The coin is finished in a dark gold, or copper colour, which signifies women’s medicine according to Indigenous tradition.
