2012 National Night Out
The 29th Annual National Night Out Against Crime
Tuesday, August 07, 2012
4:00PM and Later
National Night Out is a crime/drug prevention event sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch (NATW). It's an annual campaign involving citizens, law enforcement agencies, civic groups, businesses, neighborhood organizations and local officials from over 15,000 communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities and military bases worldwide. It is designed to heighten crime and drug prevention awareness, generate support for and participation in local anti-crime programs, strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships, and send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.
Along with the traditional display of outdoor lights and front porch vigils, cities, towns, and neighborhoods 'celebrate' NNO with a variety of events and activities such as block parties and cook-outs, exhibits, flashlight walks, contests, and youth programs.
Contact your local police precinct or Community Board to learn where an NNO event will be held near you.
