What is Neighborhood Watch?

Neighborhood Watch is a cooperative partnership between the Orange County Sheriff’s Department and Rossmoor residents and businesses to reduce crime and keep Rossmoor safe. An active Neighborhood Watch is one of the most successful and least costly crime prevention programs available.

By working with your neighbors and the Sheriff’s Department, you can help fight crime in Rossmoor the most effective way…..before it begins! Although the Sheriff’s Department provides guidance to Neighborhood Watch groups, Rossmoor volunteers, such as you, actually run the program.

 

How does Rossmoor’s Neighborhood Watch Program work?

Rossmoor’s Neighborhood Watch Program was organized back in 1982 by the Rossmoor Homeowner’s Association (RHA) and we continue to work with our community to keep the program in operation.

The Neighborhood Watch Program team is made up of Rossmoor community members organized into “block watches” of 20-30 homes each. We ask you to register your home with us to help our Block Captains have the most up-to-date contact information for you. Remember, keeping Rossmoor Safe is something we all do together.

Each block has a point of contact or a “block captain” that coordinates with his/her neighbors by sharing information via email, phone, or just conversation about staying alert (“see something say something”) and passes along recent Sheriff activity reports and crime prevention information.

When you see something out of the ordinary or suspect, please call the OCSD to report it. We are the eyes and ears of Rossmoor. It’s up to all of us to let the Sheriff’s Department know when something is not right. If it’s an emergency, dial 911, if not call the non-emergency line at 714. 647.7000

Rossmoor Neighborhood Watch signs are posted at key intersections and community entrances to promote the program and deter crime or criminal intent.

How do I participate in Neighborhood Watch?

Resident participation is key to the effectiveness of Rossmoor’s Neighborhood Watch Program and block coverage. Click here to register in the program as either a block member or a block captain. Your participation in the program helps Rossmoor stay safe by increasing the number of residents contributing to the program simply by being observant and reporting criminal or suspicious activity.

Who is my block captain?

To find out who your block captain is, go to our Block Captain page and contact the RHA Neighborhood Watch Team. They will get back to you with your Block Captain’s contact information.
