Safety and Crime Prevention How Do I Start a Neighborhood Watch?
  • Talk to your neighbors. Do they know that a Neighborhood Watch program is fun? What are their issues? What nights are they available for a meeting? Ask neighbors to be Co-Captains (one neighbor per 10 homes). Start a committee with interested neighbors to plan the first meeting. Assign someone to: market/advertise the meeting, make/buy food, meeting logistics (name tags, copy of sign-in sheet, pens). Focus on the "3 F's" which are Food, Fun and Free things. Advertise the meeting to your neighbors! Invite ALL your neighbors (in your geographical area). Talk to everyone when you get the opportunity. Deliver flyers to each home. Involve the children of your community by asking them to help by delivering the flyers. Call to confirm with your Neighborhood Watch Coordinator representative 48 hours prior to the meeting. Set up a welcome table before the meeting begins with the sign-in sheet, name tags, and any applicable material provided by the City of Scottsdale. Introduce the Neighborhood Watch Coordinator that will present on Neighborhood Watch. The presentation will last approximately 45 minutes followed by 10 minutes of questions. After the meeting, schedule a follow-up meeting with your group (a City of Scottsdale representative does not have to attend the second and subsequent meetings). Thank everyone who attended and acknowledge those who helped or neighborhood businesses that donated items. Invite neighbors to remain and get to know each other.

Benefits of a Neighborhood Watch Program
  • Neighborhoods working together create a greater sense of security and well-being. Knowing you "Look out for each other" lessens the fear of crime. You become the eyes and ears for the Sheriff's Office. Reduces the risk of being a crime victim. The preventive measures you are taught can substantially decrease the risk of being burglarized, as well as lowering the chance of vandalism, graffiti, and other crimes. You'll learn what to observe and report to your neighbors and to law enforcement. You'll learn what law enforcement needs to know when you report a crime. Knowing your neighbors is an important part of this program. You'll get to know who to contact, be aware of who belongs and who does not, and create a stronger sense of community. It simply comes down to our motto "We look out for each other"! You get information via newsletters, emails, and phone calls concerning crime prevention methods and crime activity to be aware of. You will be better prepared to spot criminal activity in your neighborhood.

Neighborhood Watch, Block Watch, Town Watch, Crime Watch – whatever the name, it’s one of the most effective and least costly ways to prevent crime and reduce fear in your neighborhood. Neighborhood Watch Programs fight the isolation and separation that crime creates and feeds upon. It forges bonds among area residents and businesses, helps reduce burglaries and robberies, and improves relations between police and the communities they serve. Neighborhood Watch Program Neighborhood Watch is the cornerstone of the LAPD’s crime prevention strategy. It enlists the active participation of residents, in cooperation with law enforcement, to reduce crime in communities throughout the city. The Neighborhood Watch program was pioneered by the Los Angeles Police Department to educate community residents regarding their roles and responsibilities in the prevention of crime, and to encourage them to take active measures to prevent crime. The program calls upon residents to step forward and assist the police in organizing the community into a cohesive unit working toward the goal of building a safer, crime-free neighborhood. Neighborhood Watch groups discuss neighborhood crime problems with the objective of developing solutions to local problems. Los Angeles Police Officers supply crime information to neighborhood watch organizations and instruct these groups in various crime prevention techniques.

Officers often make presentations on specific crime prevention tips to help make your neighborhood less attractive to criminals. The Community Services Section can help you find the active organizations in your area, or will help you start a new Neighborhood Crime Watch program. Neighborhood Watch The purpose of this brochure is to tell you how the Neighborhood Watch program works and how to organize and maintain a successful program. Neighborhood Watch was created to obtain citizen involvement in discouraging and preventing residential crime. The program uses citizen involvement to secure their own homes and personal property and to report any suspicious activities to the police. Since its creation approximately ten years ago, it has brought a dramatic drop in the local residential crime rate. Neighborhood Crime Facts
*Burglary, auto theft, rape, child molestation, and arson are the most prevalent neighborhood crimes.

Neighborhood Watch Burglary is a crime of opportunity, committed by criminals who capitalize on carelessness or neglect. Most home burglaries are not committed by professionals who have planned to commit a burglary. Most are committed by amateurs, who find an open or unlocked door or window, or drug abusers that take advantage of a home's weak defenses. To combat the increase in crime in today's society, the police need the eyes and ears of citizens like you. To help the police protect your property from criminals you must get involved. To help you help yourself, your community, and the Simi Valley Police Department the Neighborhood Watch Program was established.

Crime and fear of crime threaten the well being of a community. People become afraid to use streets and parks, suspicion erupts between young and old, and businesses gradually leave. Crime, in turn, feeds on the social isolation it creates. Modern life styles, with the increasing number of families with working parents and greater job mobility, contribute to this isolation and lack of community ties. You and your neighbors can prevent or break this vicious cycle and in the process, build your community into a safe, friendly, caring place. Neighborhood Watch is a crime prevention program that enlists the active participation of citizens in cooperation with law enforcement to reduce crime in their communities.
Revitalizing Neighborhood Watch
The San Diego Police Department is revitalizing Neighborhood Watch in all of its communities. Our mission is to build upon the original concepts of Neighborhood Watch, utilizing all available resources to create a proactive community-police partnership for crime prevention and problem solving in each community. Why is this important? Since there cannot be a police officer on every corner, citizen involvement is essential to combat crime. You and your neighbors are experts who really know what is going on in your community and by cooperating with each other and the police, you can help fight crime the most effective way before it begins.

Mobilizing Neighborhood Watch to Support Homeland Security In late September, Attorney General John Ashcroft issued a call to create a "National Neighborhood Watch" to enlist the help of all Americans in the war against terrorism. In response to this call, the Virginia Crime Prevention Association (VCPA) is asking law enforcement agencies in Virginia to Secure America by mobilizing Neighborhood Watch with a new mission, to support Homeland Security. This new mission is to provide Virginians the means to be on the watch for suspicious activity and to make their homes and communities more secure. The VCPA will help law enforcement by providing training, technical assistance and resource material. Time is of the essence. People want to get involved and are asking what they need to do to and how to report possible terrorist threats. Neighborhood Watch is a well-established program sponsored by local police and sheriff's departments. It is a natural tool to get people involved and to enlist the eyes and ears of all Americans in the war against terrorism.

What is Neighborhood Watch? Neighborhood Watch is a group of neighbors looking out for neighbors. It is getting to know each other and becoming familiar with your neighbor's habits and vehicles so that you will know when something is suspicious or out of the ordinary. In addition to recognizing potential suspicious activities, Neighborhood Watch participants report such activity by calling 911. After calling 911, also notify your Watch Chairperson. All of this doesn't make you a nosy neighbor - it makes you a good neighbor in the old-fashioned sense of the word. Many people don't want to bother the police because they are afraid that it may not be a real emergency or that they may be embarrassed if their suspicions turn out to be unfounded. The police would much rather be called out to investigate than to be called after a crime has been committed. When in doubt, always call 911. The 911 dispatch center is staffed with trained operators who will evaluate your call, rank its priority, and dispatch it to the appropriate officer. Neighborhood Watch does NOT mean being a vigilante. Participants do not confront suspects or take any personal risks at all.

What is Neighborhood Watch?
Neighborhood Watch is a citizen's involvement program, where citizens, in cooperation with the local law enforcement agency, directly participate in the detection and prevention of crime.
Citizens involved in Neighborhood Watch are trained in how to recognize suspicious activities and report these to the Police Department. Neighborhood Watch citizens keep well informed about their neighborhood and of any suspicious, criminal or dangerous activities that may be occurring. In short, Neighborhood Watch citizens provide valuable information to the Police Department for investigation and apprehension of criminals.
Neighborhood Watch is not
A group of vigilantes or lawless people taking the law into their own hands. Nor do Neighborhood Watch citizens take the place of the Police Department in enforcing the law or apprehending criminals.
Why Neighborhood Watch works
On a national scale there is approximately ONE POLICE OFFICER for every 2,000 citizens. Obviously, there are many more citizens than there are police officers. Neighborhood Watch greatly reduces this ratio of citizens to police by having Neighborhood Watch citizens become an extension of the Police Department's eyes and ears.
Neighborhood Watch provides the community with UNLIMITED AVAILABILITY of citizens to watch their neighborhood for suspicious activities or crime. This helps to deter crime since the criminal must now be on guard against the entire community.

Neighborhood Watch:
A Community Crime Prevention Program AN INTRODUCTION TO NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH Join the Fairfax County Police Department in preventing crime and become a member of our Neighborhood Watch program. When we band together, we can help each other and effectively reduce crime in our neighborhoods. Neighborhood Watch began in 1979 and has flourished steadily with over 900 community programs established throughout the county. The success of the program is due to the cooperative involvement of police and citizens. By donating a small amount of your time to observe and report suspicious activities in your neighborhood, you can be one of thousands of citizens who are contributing to the prevention of crime. The objective of Neighborhood Watch is to organize communities where residents are trained to be alert to potential crimes in their neighborhoods. Citizens are trained to keep watchful eyes on neighbors' homes and be alert to any suspicious or unusual activity that is occurring close to home. Patrol of neighborhoods can be accomplished by citizens-band radio-equipped vehicles or foot patrol. With the quick identification of a potential problem in your area, we can provide a prompt response and the trained personnel to investigate any reported incident or suspicion.
