The mission of Spokane

work, own a business or property in, or have a vested interest in the community,
in partnership with law enforcement agencies.

Let's Talk About Crime.
Crime has two victims. One is the person who suffers loss or
injury. The other is the community.
When faced with rising crime, neighbors retreat behind
locked doors, merchants abandon businesses, and streets become
empty at night. Fear creates isolation, and that increases the neighborhood’s
vulnerability to crime.
Crime doesn’t have to be a fact of life.
Millions of citizens in thousands of
neighborhoods across the country have proven that
building a sense of community and taking common sense
precautions can cut crime and counter
fear. It takes time, energy, and commitment, but the
results are worth it!
If you've been
a victim of crime, you understand the need to step up and take
responsibility for your own safety and that of your family and
perhaps your neighbors.
If you have not been a victim of crime... statistics say that you
WILL sometime in your life. To help minimize that
possibility, EVERYONE needs to take an active role in preparing
themselves with the resources and knowledge necessary to help
maintain the quality of life they expect.
