Register a Watch
- Recruit and organize as many neighbors as possible. It is wonderful that you are taking the steps to start a Neighborhood Watch group in your neighborhood. The first step is talking to your fellow neighbors about starting a group.
- Contact the National Coordinator +1 (242)(477-2036) or National Co-Chairs +1 (242)(636-9773 or 466-3305) to schedule a meeting and be introduced to a Liaison Officer of The Royal Bahamas Police Force.
- The next step is contacting your Liaison Officer. Invite them to meet with your group at a time and place convenient for your Watch Group. It is essential for your group to work in collaboration with law enforcement because Neighborhood Watch is a cooperative effort.
- Discuss community concerns and develop an action plan.
- If the Liaison Officer is unavailable to come to the first meeting you might want to have a meeting to discuss the concerns and issues in the neighborhood. Your group should create a plan on how to work towards lessening the impact of the top 3 concerns of neighbors.
- Create a communication plan.
- It is important to decide what type of communication will work for your watch group – meetings or social media or both.
- Take Action: Hold Meetings and Events
