National Night Out is an annual nationwide event designed to:

  • Raise crime prevention awareness;
  • Strengthen neighborhood spirit and unity;
  • Develop partnerships between the City and the community on the “block level.”

Be a part of strengthening your community by knowing your neighbors, watching out for each other, and working together for a safe community!

Is Your Neighborhood Watch block registered?


If your block is a neighborhood watch block and is registered to participate in this year's National Night Out, we will send a police representative to visit your event.

If your block is not currently part of neighborhood watch, this is a great opportunity to get your neighbors interested in joining this valuable crime prevention program.
