| The History of NATW and National Night Out
The National Association of Town Watch (NATW) is a nonprofit, crime prevention organization which works in cooperation with thousands of crime watch groups and law enforcement agencies throughout the country. Since 1981, NATW has been dedicated to the development, growth and maintenance of organized crime and drug prevention programs nationwide. NATW's network has grown to include over 6,500 crime, drug and violence prevention organizations.
While the traditional 'lights on' and front porch vigils remain a part of NNO, activities have expanded considerably over the years to include block parties, cookouts, parades, visits from police, festivals, neighborhood walks, safety fairs, contests, rallies and meetings.
Southside Baptist Ministries and Southside Baptist Christian School have been a proud support of NATW for several years. The community is invited to join us for this very special night as we come together to show that we are indeed united in our efforts to keep our neighborhoods safe for future generations.
