Neighborhood Watch Program

How do I Start a Neighborhood Watch Group?

• Talk to your neighbors about the need for such a group, based on personal knowledge of crime or suspicious activity in your area.
• Discuss the best time, day of the week, and the ideal location for your neighbors to meet.  Meetings are typically scheduled Monday through Thursday evenings, generally beginning at 6:30 pm. The meeting can be held at the home of a member or somewhere outside your neighborhood such as a library, church, community hall, or park. 
• Reach out to the Community Service Officer assigned to your Policing District to discuss a date and time to schedule your first meeting.  Please be sure to allow at least two weeks' notice for us to make arrangements to attend your meeting.
• Invite your neighbors to the first meeting.
