Description
Youth Crime Watch of America is a non profit 501 (c)(3) youth-led crime prevention/leadership program in schools and communities that has been in existence since the early 1980’s. With programs all across the United States and other countries, unlike other well intended programs where adults attempt to solve youth problems, we give youngsters the tools and guidance necessary to actively reduce drugs, crimes and violence in their respective environments with a “Help Out, Watch Out!” philosophy. We are supported in part by the US Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention and US Department of Education as well as private donations.
Mission Statement: To mobilize and equip a youth led movement in schools and communities in partnership with public and private institutions to create a safer environment free of crime, violence, and illicit drugs in order to foster good citizenship throughout the world.
