38 million neighbors in 16,000 communities are expected to participate in National Night Out. National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that marries police and public safety while providing a platform for neighborhood camaraderie.
Clairemont Neighborhood Watch block captains and San Diego Police Officers will be on-hand for the duration of the evening answering questions and registering interested individuals to start their own Neighborhood Watch program.
Several incidents ranging from burglaries to shootings have recently occurred in the neighborhood of Clairemont. “Neighborhood Watch programs are one of the most effective crime prevention programs in the nation.
