Neighborhood Watch (is):
- An organization that promotes community involvement and getting to know your neighbors
- Teaches residents means to stay safe and not be victimized by crime
- Educates citizens on the importance of recognizing suspicious activity
- Trains residents to keep their valuables safe and secure
The “Sweet” Duties of a Block Captain; Be:
Safe – Report any unusual or suspicious behavior. Write down license numbers descriptions or any other information available. Remember the responsibility for apprehending criminals belongs to the Southern View Police.
United – Develop communication networks with your neighbors and fellow block captains so vital information can be shared whenever necessary.
Good Neighbor – Look out for your neighbor’s property and ask them to look out for yours.
Aware – Attend Neighborhood Watch meetings with your local police, neighbors, and other crime prevention and service organizations.
Reliable – Distribute information and perform your responsibilities in a timely manner.
Mission Statement It is the mission of the Southern View Neighborhood Watch program through the assistance and sponsorship of the Southern View Police Department to actively seek members and safeguard residents of the Village of Southern View. This is accomplished through education on simple crime prevention methods as well as public awareness through meetings, publications, and a close partnership with the Southern View Police Department. No members are ever encouraged to put themselves, their family or neighbors in harms way. Instead all residents are asked to observe and report suspicions activity to the police. This leaves the responsibility for confronting and apprehending criminals to where it belongs, the Southern View Police Department. Southern View Neighborhood Watch, Neighbors watching out for neighbors!
