The purpose of the Neighborhood Watch program is to make residential areas less attractive to criminal activity by increasing residents’ awareness of their surroundings and educating them on how to protect themselves, which deters thieves and makes it harder for them to commit crimes.
Here's what to do if you want to start a neighborhood watch program:
- Talk to your neighbors.
- Contact our community social coordinators. Together with the Skövde Neighborhood Watch, we’ll help you get started.
