National Night Out website

America's Night Out Against Crime! When: Tue Aug 4th, 2015 All Day! Where: Your Neighborhood!

Last year millions of people, from every state, across 15,000 communities participated in events to help make communities safe and raise awareness about anticrime programs.

National Night Out is a time when individuals and groups are encourgaged to gather together after dark in parks and other public places for wholesome activities. The idea is to symbolically reclaim our public spaces by using them, encouraging other people to use them and making the space feel safe, and discouraging illegal and anti-social activity.

Don't let crime control your neighborhood.
