Child Protection Detectives

Child Protection Detectives have challenging but rewarding careers investigating complaints of child abuse, child pornography, and sexual abuse involving children under the age of 14.

We currently have 10 Child Protection Detectives dedicated to protecting Edmonton’s greatest resource – our children.

EPS Detectives apply and compete for positions in the Child Protection Unit. Members are required to be exceptional investigators and interviewers with an ability to communicate well with children. A background in the EPS CARRT Unit can be an asset in becoming a member of the Child Protection Unit.
