Safe Poway Neighborhoods

San Diego Sheriff Crime Prevention Specialist Eric Kant led the discussion on Safe Poway Neighborhoods. The most important message of the night was “See Something, Say Something”. The Sheriff can’t take action unless they are aware something is/has happened. If you don’t think a call to 9-1-1 is warranted, use the non-emergency line 1-858-565-5200.

A big thank you to Captain Nancy Blanco and our Senior Volunteers for presenting on joining the Senior Volunteer Patrol, understanding Helicopter Announcements, the You Are Not Alone program, the Home Vacation Check program, and Crime Prevention.
