Provincial Government Building – Red Deer

Legal and Administrative Services

The Provincial Government Building in Red Deer is a central hub for Alberta’s judicial and social support services in the Central Alberta region. This facility primarily houses the Crown Prosecution Service, which manages criminal prosecutions for Red Deer and surrounding areas. It is also home to the Office of the Public Guardian and Trustee (OPGT), providing decision-making support for vulnerable adults. Unlike a standard registry agent, this building is dedicated to specialized government functions rather than routine driver licensing or vehicle registration.

• Crown Prosecutors: The 6th floor houses the legal team responsible for prosecuting Criminal Code and provincial statute offences.
• Public Guardian and Trustee: Offers guardianship and trusteeship services for Albertans who are unable to make personal or financial decisions independently.
• Children’s Services: Contains regional delivery offices for child financial support and child care services.

Located downtown on 51st Street, the building operates during standard government business hours, Monday through Friday.

Access to specific floors may require security clearance or an appointment, particularly for legal matters. The building is wheelchair accessible and located near downtown transit routes.
