The Colville Police Services offer several crime prevention programs that are an invaluable resource to local citizens, and provide a broad range of programs to the community.

Block Watch

We endorse the Block Watch Program. This program is designed to help citizens become more aware of crime and suspicious activities which may be occurring in their neighborhoods. The Block Watch Program has been proven effective in reducing crime and improving the overall quality of life in the community. Meeting in small groups, citizens learn crime prevention techniques, residential security tips, environmental design strategies, and how to recognize and report crime. Block Watch groups become the eyes and ears of the neighborhoods in the community. For additional information or to schedule a Block Watch meeting call 684-2525.

Business Seminars

A variety of topics are offered to the business community through our crime prevention officer. Our seminars are designed to aid the business community in management information and employee training. The seminars include crime prevention, internal theft, fraud, drug awareness, workplace violence, and more. Employers are provided with crime prevention literature, as well as other valuable information to help businesses help themselves. To schedule a seminar, or for additional information contact us at 684-2525.
