ARE YOU A PART OF BLOCK WATCH IN THE SOUTH COWICHAN AREA…?
The Block Watch program provides individuals and groups of people with the tools and knowledge they need to support safe, healthy and socially rich neighborhoods.
- Neighbours watch out for neighbours.
- Families in a designated area form a communication chain aided by a block map of names, telephone numbers and addresses.
- Some groups arrange a patrol by those members who walk their dogs in the neighborhood on a regular basis (Citizen on Patrol)
- Participants meet yearly to organize and get acquainted.
- Each group has a Captain trained in the philosophy and practices of Block Watch.
