Business Watch

Business Watch Program 

The Business Watch Program promotes a safer community through crime prevention and environmental design in order to mitigate crime. A Business Watch Program is one of the most effective and least costly ways to reduce crime and reduce fear. It can help to restore the sense of community in a commercial district.

How does it work?

Business Watch Programs are organized in communities that want to prevent criminal activities from starting. It sends a signal to the criminal element that the merchants in the neighborhood care about their community.
