How can I learn about the Community Watch program?
Thank you for taking time to express an interest in Thornton's Neighborhood Watch Program. It is only through the cooperative efforts of citizens and the police that the security of our city's neighborhoods can continue. Community Watch is a citizen’s involvement program, where citizens, in cooperation with the Thornton Police Department directly participate in the detection and prevention of crime. The initial community watch meeting covers topics such as crime trends, police procedures and patrols, community watch concept, Operation I.D., and target hardening. This initial meeting lasts approximately two hours and is designed to get your Community Watch Program off to successful start. Help us make your neighborhood a safe and healthy place in which to live.
