Block Watch

Program Outline

The Block Watch program provides individuals and communities with the tools and knowledge they need to support safe, healthy, and socially rich neighbourhoods.

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 members who walk their dogs in the neighbourhood on a regular basis (Citizen on Patrol)
Participants meet annually to organize and get acquainted
Each group has a Lead trained in the philosophy and practices of Block Watch

Block Watch Lead

As a Block Watch Lead, you foster a working relationship and awareness among residents that helps ward off potential crime in your neighbourhood. With a small gift of time, you show friends and neighbours the importance of being committed for the good of all.
