The Vancouver Police Department is looking for volunteers to join its neighborhood watch program.
The Neighbors On Watch academy begins Sept. 26, according to a department news release. Following the academy, volunteers will help the department through citizen patrols, administrative support and assisting with special projects like the Out of State License Program.
Those who participate will receive specialized training in observation skills, searching techniques, radio communication, CPR, first aid and more, the news release says.
More information can be found on the department’s Neighbors On Watch page, www.cityofvancouver.us/police/page/neighbors-watch-now-program, or by contacting volunteer coordinator Jordan Macfarlane at jordan.macfarlane@cityofvancouver.us.
