Neighborhood Watch

Overview


Neighborhood Watch is a crime prevention program, which enlists the active participation of citizens, in cooperation with law enforcement, to reduce crime in our community.

What it Involves


  • Neighbors getting to know each other and working together in a program of mutual assistance.
  • Citizens being trained to recognize and report suspicious activity and identify vehicles that are not usually in the area.
  • The implementation of crime prevention techniques, such as home security, vehicle security and Operation Identification.

Why Neighborhood Watch?


  • Over 40 million crimes are committed every year nationwide.
  • There can't be a law enforcement officer on every corner, so citizen involvement is essential to combat this social crisis.
  • By cooperating with each other and the police, people can help fight crime in their community the most effective way - before it begins.
