Carnes and grew under the direction of recently retired Chief Michael J. Almonte.  In the past 12 months, Yarmouth Police Lieutenant Patrick Carty and the Community Advisory Team have fostered the growth of the program into 45 neighborhoods with one of the most extensive networks of Crime Watch Captains in one community in the entire Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If you are interested in forming a Neighborhood Crime Watch please review the following general outline of how to get one started in your neighborhood:Contact Yarmouth Police Lieutenant Patrick Carty at 508.775.0445 extension 2116 and arrangements will be made to host a meeting. The meetings are generally held in the evenings or on a weekend when most people are home from work.The meeting preferably is held in the neighborhood at someone’s home. This way people can just walk to the location. This has been found across the country to be much more effective since one of the objectives is to meet and get to know your neighbors. Once a meeting date has been established with the Police Officer and the resident hosting the meeting, a flier and brochure are provided to be distributed to all the neighbors. This is to inform everyone of the meeting; the brochure speaks to the implementation of Neighborhood Watch.The night of the meeting, a Yarmouth Police Officer attends and provides information regarding crime trends, crime statistics, what his or her role is as a Crime Watch Liaison Officer, what the Yarmouth Police Department is doing to assist the community and discusses alarm issues as well as how and when to call the police. That Police Officer teaches the residents what is needed when calling the police about a suspicious person or vehicle and answers questions that residents may have.Our Police Officer and the Crime Watch Captain Coordinator explains how to set up a phone chain—a collection of phone numbers, addresses and special needs or information pertinent to their homes. When the phone chain is completed, it is shared with all the neighbors participating in the crime watch.All Yarmouth Police Neighborhood Crime Watch Captains have been issued official Yarmouth Police Department Crime Watch Captain photo identifications and each one has done tremendous work in bolstering the Crime Watch Neighborhood Groups and in helping to work together with the women and men of the Yarmouth Police Department to make our community a safer and more comfortable place to live, work, and visit. This media release was prepared and distributed by Yarmouth Police Department Deputy Chief of Police Steven G.
