One such "Citizen Involved" Crime Prevention Program is Neighbourhood Watch. It is a program which employs an elegantly simple technique of"neighbours looking out for neighbours" to reduce threats of crime against potential victims. This letter is to introduce you to a group of concerned citizens who want to be involved in this program. Through persistence, devotion and hard work, these people have made an honourable effort to fonn a Neighbourhood Watch within their community. They have met all criteria as set out in the Durham Regional Police Service's "Neighbourhood Watch Guidelines" and have received a commitment from their fellow neighbours of at least 75% participation. In so doing, they have demonstrated their understanding that Crime Prevention is not just ajob for a few professionals. Rather, the attitude and involvement of these citizens proves their genuine concern to work together to make our community a better place to live. The Durham Regional Police Service endorses this new organization as an official Community Neighbourhood Watch. It is recommended that they be granted permission to erect approved Neighbourhood Watch signs in their area as a crime deterrent. A map outlining proposed sign locations is enclosed for your consideration. Thank you in advance. Sincerely, 2:;/1 ') .,/,,: .' / .- /~r~6/~-------. 'f Morgen Do~on, #1 ISO, P.C.
