Night Out Against Crime
Help Your Neighborhood Be Safer
Public Health – Dayton & Montgomery County’s Violence Prevention Program in partnership with the Residence Park Neighborhood Association is hosting a “Night Out Against Crime” on Tuesday, August 1, from 4:00 – 8:00 pm at Residence Park in Dayton.
National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. Furthermore, it provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances.
“A key part of living a healthy life is having a safe place to live, said Jeff Cooper, Health Commissioner, Public Health – Dayton & Montgomery County. “ Exposure to crime and violence can increase the risk of smoking, alcohol and drug abuse; mental illness, anxiety disorders and chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes.”
