What is Neighborhood Watch? Police Departments across the country are learning that community participation in anti-crime programs is essential. One of the most effective ways to promote citizen interaction with police is the sharing of information. Citizen groups determine specific needs or problems and then share this information with local police. The police then act on this information and report back to the group on their progress. This program also works when the police go to public groups and organizations and make them aware of specific criminal activities or the needs of the police department. The Neighborhood Watch concept is designed to target specific geographical areas and to assist citizens in these areas to: Establish an organizational structure and create an information sharing network. Help to introduce neighbors and create social ties that will help them work together. Allow police to train citizens on how to be proactive by preventing crime and how to recognize and report criminal activities. Access information and assistance from police and other Government agencies that can help to improve living conditions.
