Purpose
National Night Out is designed to:
Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness

Send a message to criminals letting them know neighborhoods are organized and fighting back
Event Details
Participating neighborhoods nationwide are asked to turn on outside lights, lock their doors, and spend the evening outside with neighbors and public safety officials. Neighborhoods will be hosting a variety of events ranging from small potlucks and BBQs to large block parties. Some additional event ideas include, but are not limited to, ice cream socials, food or clothing donations, beautify a common area, discuss or plan a Neighborhood Watch Program.
