2-1-1 Get Connected. Get Answers.
The national 2-1-1 initiative seeks to reserve these three digits nationwide as a quick, easy-to-remember telephone number for finding human services answers. 2-1-1 is a telephone number that, where available, connects people with important community services and volunteer opportunities. The implementation of 2-1-1 is being spearheaded by the United Way and will help connect you with specialized information and referral agencies in state and local communities.
Courtwatch Program
The objective of the Courtwatch program is to create a citywide process to help victims, their families and neighbors by monitoring court proceedings and following the outcome of trials. This program sends a clear message to criminals and judges that crime will not be tolerated in neighborhoods and offers support to judges, prosecutors and police in their efforts.
Neighborhood Watch Program
Neighborhood Watch provides the opportunity for residents to work with the police in establishing community crime prevention programs designed to meet a neighborhood’s particular needs. Residents work together to look out for each other's homes, vehicles and neighborhood area businesses. Neighborhood Watch is sometimes referred to as "street club," "block watch" or "crime watch." Here is a checklist to help you get started.

Project Safe Neighborhoods
Project Safe Neighborhoods is a nationwide commitment to reduce gun violence by networking existing local programs that target gun crime and providing these programs with additional tools necessary to be successful. The goal is to take a hard line against gun criminals through every available means in an effort to make our streets and communities safer. Project Safe Neighborhoods seeks to achieve heightened coordination among federal, state and local law enforcement, with an emphasis on tactical intelligence gathering, more aggressive prosecutions and enhanced accountability through performance measures. The offensive will be led by the U.S. Attorney in each of the 94 federal judicial districts across America.
