The adult watch program is a wonderful program that is run by Community Watch. On the assigned days the dispatchers make calls to the residents that sign up for the program. In the event that the dispatcher can not make contact with a resident by phone, they will dispatch a patrol driver to the resident's home in order to attempt to make contact. If the patrol driver is unable to make contact with the resident then local law enforcement will be asked to conduct a wellness check.

This is only one of the great programs that are offered by the community watch and they have positions open every few months.
