In conjunction with the North Vancouver RCMP detachment, the City develops and supports the following programs in an effort to reduce and prevent crime in the community.
Block Watch Program
Block Watch is all about neighbours helping neighbours. Operated by the RCMP of North Vancouver, Block Watch is a free crime prevention program that makes safety the number one priority for you, your home and community.
The force behind the success of Block Watch is you. Participants of the program watch out for each other's homes and report suspicious activities to the police and one another to reduce the likelihood of residential crime. Aided by a map of names, addresses and telephone numbers, each block of households, apartments and condominiums form a communication chain. This vital link becomes the mouthpiece for your neighbourhood, sending a strong message to would-be criminals: they are not welcome.
Contact the North Vancouver RCMP Block Watch Office for more information about Block Watch or how you can organize a Block Watch program for your neighbourhood.
