National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that began in 1984 and promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie, striving to make our neighborhoods safer and better places to live. National Night Out strengthens relationships between neighbors and law enforcement, fosters a sense of community and provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together.

Citizens, law enforcement agencies, community groups, businesses, youth organizations and local, state, and federal officials take part in National Night Out across thousands of communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canada and military bases worldwide.

The best way to prevent crime is to get to know your neighbors and your surroundings. National Night Out triumphs over a culture that isolates us from each other and allows us to rediscover our own communities. 

For more information, contact Sgt. Anthony Lynn at alynn@vtpd.com. If you are interested in volunteering, please email media@vtpd.com. Take the opportunity to meet with police officers, K-9 units, firefighters, EMT’s, drug and alcohol educators, domestic violence advocates and numerous other public service providers.
