Saskatchewan RCMP say family and intimate partner violence rates were persistently high again 2025, with officers responding to more than 9,800 victims.

The RCMP says family violence is an umbrella term referring to any violence committed by spouses, ex-spouses, parents, children, siblings or other family members; and intimate partner violence is violence committed by current or former spouses or romantic partners.

In 2025, officers were called to 5,191 family violence victims and 4,708 intimate partner violence victims. Although these numbers are high, they are still down from 2024, when RCMP responded to 5,269 family violence victims and 4,808 intimate partner violence victims.
