National Night Out (NNO) is an annual community-building campaign on the first Tuesday in October in Texas that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live.
National Night Out is designed to:
- Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness
- Generate support for, and participation in, local anti-crime programs
- Bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances
- Send a message to criminals letting them know our neighborhoods are organized and fighting back
