What is Neighborhood Watch?
-
Neighborhood
Watch is a crime prevention program which enlists the active participation
of residents in cooperation with the law enforcement to reduce crime in
their communities.
It
involves:
* Neighbors
getting to know each other and working together in a program of mutual
assistance
* Residents
trained to recognize and report suspicious activities in their
neighborhoods; and
* Implementation
of crime prevention techniques such as home security, Operation
Identification, etc.
You may
hear it called Neighborhood Watch, Home Alert, Citizen Crime Watch or Block
Watch, but the idea is all the same:
NEIGHBORS LOOKING OUT FOR
EACH OTHER!

How Do I Get Involved?
FIRST: Contact the Ector County Sheriffs
Office Crime Prevention Unit.
Lt. Roy Gladden can be reached at
432-498-4045.
Explain that you
are interested in joining or starting a Neighborhood Watch group.
THEN: Our office will set up an
appointment for you to come out to get you started on your way to a safer
community.
REMEMBER:
Law
enforcement officers can’t be everywhere at once,
But you
and your neighbors can be there.
Put that
"neighborhood know how" to work.
It’s
Simple:
· Use your eyes and ears and then your
telephone
· If you spot something suspicious, call
the Ector County Sheriff’s Office at 432-335-3050 and an officer will respond
to your needs.
