Neighborhood Watch can help keep your neighborhood safe
This community-based program is designed to educate you and your neighbors on effective crime prevention techniques for your home and neighborhood. Through the program, Mission Viejo Police Services and the community work together to enhance neighborhood security and heighten awareness.
The benefits of this program are numerous. It helps you to:
*Develop partnerships with local law enforcement
*Learn effective crime prevention techniques based on the crime trends in your neighborhood
*Build trusting relationships with your neighbors
*Learn to recognize and report suspicious activity
*Receive information on special events and unique volunteer opportunities
If you are interested in starting a Neighborhood Watch group, contact Mission Viejo’s Crime Prevention Specialist at 949-470-8401 or crimeprevention@cityofmissionviejo.org.
