Block Captain


Calling all block captains
Neighborhood watch is neighbors looking out for neighbors. Program is designed to help prevent crime and give you the right tools should crime occur in your neighborhood.


WHY NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH?
Quality of life in our community is everyone's responsibility. We are individually and collectively responsible for the safety and security of our families, our neighbors, our homes and ourselves. Neighborhood Watch is one of the most effective and least costly ways to prevent crime and reduce fear. Launched in 1972, Neighborhood Watch counts on citizens to organize themselves and work with law enforcement to keep a trained eye and ear on their communities, while demonstrating their presence at all times of day and night.
