Neighborhood Watch

The Eastport Village Board of Directors supports and is encouraging the formation of a Neighborhood Watch program for our neighborhood. 
We feel it is an important step we can take as citizens to keep our neighborhood a safe and desirable place to live.

What is Neighborhood Watch?
 
It is a crime prevention program that enlists the active participation of citizens in cooperation with law enforcement to reduce crime.
It involves:

  • Neighbors getting to know each other, taking the time to care about each other and working together in a program of mutual assistance.
  • Citizens being trained to recognize and report suspicious activities in their neighborhood
  • Citizens implementing crime prevention strategies such as home security, Operation Identification and others.



In order to become officially recognized Columbia Neighborhood Watch blocks, each street or block needs to have at least 50%  
of occupied homes have a member attend a Neighborhood Watch training session.
