National Night Out is designed to heighten crime and drug prevention awareness, generate support for, and participation in, local anti crime programs, strengthen neighborhood spirit and police - community partnerships and send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back. The first Tuesday of August every year is America's Night Out in its fight against crime.
National Night Out has proven to be an effective, inexpensive and enjoyable program to promote neighborhood spirit and police - community partnerships in our fight for a safer nation. Plus, the benefits our community will derive from National Night Out will most certainly extend well beyond the one night.
