Can We Talk About That?

Episode 9 - Calling for Help: What Happens When You Call the Police About Abuse?


Listen Later

In this episode, I sit down with Lisa Narancsik, Detective Constable with the Ontario Provincial Police, to unpack what actually happens when someone calls the police about abuse.⁠We talk about what information officers look for when responding to calls, how decisions around charges are made, and what support can look like during and after police involvement.

⁠If you've ever wondered, "What really happens if I call the police?" or "What if I’m not ready to press charges?" — this conversation brings clarity, compassion, and answers.
