The program enhances the partnership between police and the community while providing resources for neighbors to be more aware of their surroundings and how to effectively observe and report suspicious activity.

"Incorporating these activities with your best friend to serve the whole community is an opportunity that fits Davidson and helps the police department in our goal to be proactive in preventing crime." This training session is open to the first twenty-five (25) Davidson residents who register, with additional training sessions coming in the future. To register, please complete the online form here.
