Community policing works better when the community is united. One way to start is to knock on your neighbor s doors and introduce yourself. Hold community meetings. Get the word out on when and where the meetings will take place. Encourage your neighbors to attend.
Meetings can be a great opportunity to air concerns and agree on solutions.
Join a Community Watch group. It s your neighborhood, help keep an eye on it. If there is not group in your neighborhood, ask us how to start one. Talk to your neighborhood beat officer. Get to know him or her by their first name.
