Neighborhood Watch
Your commitment?
ONE meeting ONCE a year.
Concerned about crime?
Want to advertise to the Bad Guys
not to bother with criminal activity on your block?
Police need YOU.
Police need your eyes and your ears to help reduce the possibility
of you or your neighbors becoming a crime statistic.
The direct reduction of crime in our neighborhoods is
OUR responsibility, as well as that of the police.
Neighborhood Watch unites your block to “Harden the Target” and notifies criminals that they are more likely to get caught on your street. That the people who live on this block have taken steps to make themselves and their homes and possessions more secure. Belonging to a Neighborhood Watch means:
* We know each other and watch out for one another.
* We have been trained by the police on home and neighborhood security.
* We communicate with each other and the police about all suspicious activity.
It’s wonderful that so many residents say that they know their neighbors and and look out for one another, BUT have you alerted the Bad Guys to that fact?!?!? A Neighborhood Watch sign posted on each end of your block is like putting the club on your car’s steering wheel. Is the bad guy more likely to break into the car with the club or the car without the club? Is the bad guy more likely to commit criminal activities on the street with a Watch sign posted at each end of the block or the one without a Watch sign?
Neighborhood Watch will not prevent every crime, but it will empower you against crime by uniting your block with knowledge, with neighbor’s phone numbers, and with information.
Interested in participating in Neighborhood Watch on your block?
