WHITE ROCK HILLS — Volunteers in Patrol (VIP) is proven method used to reduce crime throughout Dallas - including other Neighborhood Associations directly adjacent to our East Dallas community.
VIP is a non-confrontational neighborhood patrol program designed to reduce crime through the increased cooperation between citizens and police. Volunteers donate time to patrol the neighborhood by driving their own vehicle or vehicles provided by their community organization. They are trained by the DPD to observe, recognize and report suspicious and criminal activity in their neighborhood.
The VIP program allows citizens to take an active role in crime prevention by acting as the eyes and ears of the police department. It builds camaraderie between the residents of the neighborhood by creating a safer environment and a better quality of life. It also sends a message that the neighborhood is aware, alert and will not tolerate criminal activity.
The next VIP training class is scheduled for Saturday, March 28th. Please consider VIP training so we can launch this program in our neighborhood! Just a few hours of your time each month can make a difference in our security.
