Neighborhood Watch
The Neighborhood Watch program educates the public on crime prevention and brings neighborhoods together to make the community a safer place to live.
Neighborhood Watch is a program of mutual assistance among neighbors aimed at reducing crime in the community at the grass-roots level. It involves getting to know your neighbors and introducing them to the concept that good neighbors working together can look out for one another’s interest
