For nearly 30 years Neighborhood Watch has been a cornerstone of Portland’s crime prevention efforts. neighborhood Watches are groups of neighbors working together to improve public safety, building community on their block, in their neighborhood.

Neighborhood Watch participants get to know their neighbors, learn crime prevention techniques, and together, plan projects, such as: eradicate drug houses, have a neighborhood garage sale, help maintain yards of neighbors unable to.

The City of Portland’s Crime Prevention Program administers Neighborhood Watch for Portland. Every few years, staff conducts a survey, updating their information.  Thie survey will be conducted this summer, from mid-June to late July.
