Forming
a Neighborhood Watch group is the first step for every community
mobilizing against crime. National Sheriffs' Association's
Neighborhood Watch Implementation Manual provides you with
information on how to start a Watch group and suggest activities
for your group to participate in once it is up and running.
Along with acting as the "eyes and ears" of local law enforcement,
Neighborhood Watch also encourages citizens to take steps
to make their own homes and property less vulnerable to the
threat of break-ins and vandalism. The following Neighborhood
Watch resource materials discuss steps you can take to help
secure your home or business, and your valuables:
The
Citizens' Preparedness Guide provides current crime and disaster
preparedness information to give Americans guidance on how
to prepare in homes, in neighborhoods, at work, at the airport,
in places of worship, and in public spaces.
