Neighbourhood Watch: New and Improved
In 2014 the Edmonton Neighbourhood Watch program was revamped. New is the Neighbourhood Ambassador program. You can volunteer to be responsible for one block, or a portion of your neighbourhood. An evening training session is provided by the Edmonton Police Service. There you learn about the options for volunteer Ambassadors. Our Community League is committed to supporting individuals interested in taking on this role. To learn more check out www.enwatch.ca
