La Palma Neighborhood Watch (NW) is a volunteer organization that meets monthly to receive training, crime trend updates, and general question sessions. Neighborhood Watch volunteers deliver 5,000 copies of The Source to their respective reporting districts.
 
Objectives
NW is an organized effort by concerned residents to look out for each other's safety and to help police protect people and their homes against criminals. It practices cooperation with each other and with police in a common interest for safe homes and neighborhoods.

Functions
Working together, neighbors learn how to safeguard each other's homes and reduce the risk of crime. They become more alert to unusual or suspicious circumstances, individuals, or vehicles. They learn that it is better to call the police when they see something suspicious, even if their suspicion proves unfounded, rather than to keep quiet and risk letting a neighbor be victimized by criminals. 

NW does not mean prying or nosy neighbors who try to stop criminals all by themselves. As a member, your responsibility is to call the police and report what you've seen, not to take action yourself. 

Benefits
Neighborhoods are made up of people who have the power to protect each other's safety. By reporting any suspicious circumstances to law enforcement agencies, members of an NW actually increase their own safety.

Police cannot fight crime they do not know about. When alert citizens keep them informed, the police are far more effective against crime and citizens have better protection and safer neighborhoods. Join NW to protect your home and stay safe.
