In the second half of our program, Phil talks with Julie Niemchick, crime prevention coordinator with the Grand Rapids Police Department. On Tuesday, August 6th, many neighborhoods throughout Grand Rapids and throughout Michigan are hosting family-friendly National Night Out (NNO) events to foster a spirit of community and raise awareness of crime prevention efforts. Julie joined us to discuss the impact of National Night Out in West Michigan, especially with the many participating neighborhood groups throughout Grand Rapids. The Grand Rapids Police and Fire departments and city leadership will visit many of these events throughout the evening. Residents throughout the community are encouraged to turn on outside lights and spend time outdoors on porches, lawns, and sidewalks to connect with neighbors and participate in organized neighborhood events. The goals of National Night Out are to encourage neighbors to spend time together in fun and positive ways to build community, raise awareness of crime prevention programs and the role everyone has in keeping our community safe, learn about the many ways city departments and community-based partners contribute to safe communities; strengthen positive community and police relationships and show neighborhood unity in fighting crime and creating a safe community for all.
