Block Watch
The goal of Block Watch is to reduce crime by educating the community and improving communication among neighbors. Neighborhoods who work together to solve crime problems, or prevent them from happening in the first place, are less likely to suffer continued victimization.

Police Volunteers
Volunteers are the "community" part of community policing. We offer a variety of volunteer programs to match your interests including those who want to explore a career in law enforcement and those who simply want to assist with special events or community patrols.
