National Night Out is being held on the first Tuesday of August, an annual nationwide event designed to strengthen relationships in your neighborhoods, raise crime prevention awareness, and continue relationships with public safety; Police, Fire, CERT, Police Volunteers, and Ham Radio Operators. Each and every year becomes a greater success for all that are involved.

All Newark citizens, neighborhoods, apartment complexes, townhomes, business, and shopping centers are invited and encouraged to participate. Hosting an event or block party is a simple way for people to meet, have fun, and explore how they might work together to improve the safety and quality of life in their neighborhood. Begin your planning early and become involved in your neighborhood.
