Temple Station National Night Out



The introduction of National Night Out, "America's Night Out Against Crime", in 1984 began an effort to promote involvement in crime prevention activities, police-community partnerships, neighborhood camaraderie and send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back. NATW's National Night Out program culminates annually, on the first Tuesday of August.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department will be helping neighborhoods throughout Los Angeles County join forces with thousands of communities nationwide for the 30th Annual National Night Out crime and drug prevention event. National Night Out, which is sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch and co-sponsored locally by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, involved more than 9,700 communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities and military bases around the world. In all, an estimated 33 million people participated in "America's Night Out Against Crime."

National Night Out is designed to: (1) Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness; (2) Generate support for, and participation in, local anti-crime efforts; (3) Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships; and (4) Send a message to criminals letting them know neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.
