Neighborhood
Watch is an organized group of
neighbors
that are the eyes
and ears for local law enforcement.
Neighborhood Watch Groups provide
an important and essential role
in strengthening
community relationships and supporting
the overall safety of the neighborhood.
Neighborhood Watch Groups learn how
to report suspicious activities and
use crime prevention techniques provided
by local Law enforcement that aide
in the prevention and management
of
crime. A strong Neighborhood Watch
Program is one of the most efficient
and cost effective ways to prevent
crime. Helpful Crime Prevention Tips:
•
Call the Sheriff’s Department
any time you see suspicious activity
of any type going on in your community. • Take
time to secure your home and
personal safety. Review
these tips.
