Neighborhood Watch is coming to your community, and we need you to get involved! What’s in it for you?
Safer streets and homes, community spirit, camaraderie with your neighbors, stronger relationships with law enforcement, and so much more. And it’s easy to participate in Neighborhood Watch!
Neighborhood Watch embraces and strengthens many things we’re already doing, such as watching out for each other’s homes or working together to solve problems.
But Neighborhood Watch brings along the power of organization and the ability to focus energy and resources.
Often Neighborhood Watch groups get started because there have been incidents in the community that have caused concern—acts of vandalism, burglaries, or car thefts.
These are the types of crime that Neighborhood Watch is the most successful in reducing.
An active Watch group can also help reduce drug dealing and open-air drug markets, discourage gangs, improve the security of young people, and help older neighbors stay safe from crime.
