The Scott County Sheriff's Office, in support of the National Sheriff's Association is announcing the launch of the Next Generation National Neighborhood Watch program.
You may know it previously as USAonWatch.org - Neighborhood Watch Program, but they are now being rebranded as the National Neighborhood Watch - A Division of the National Sheriff's Association.
USAonWatch was started in 1972 with funding in part by the National Sheriff's Association, through a grant. The grant funding has come to an end, but the National Sheriff's Association is happy to continue with this great program.
Our nation is built on the strength of our citizens. Every day, we encounter situations calling upon us to be the eyes and ears of law enforcement. Not only does neighborhood watch allow citizens to help in the fight against crime, it is also an opportunity for communities to bond through service. The Neighborhood Watch Program draws upon the compassion of average citizens, asking them to lend their neighbors a hand.
