Neighborhood Watch is a crime prevention program that stresses education and common sense. It teaches citizens how to help themselves by identifying and reporting suspicious activity in their neighborhoods. In addition, it provides citizens with the opportunity to make their neighborhoods safer and improve the quality of life.

Block Captains are key to an outstanding Neighborhood Watch Program. The Block Captains meet with new residents to explain the Neighborhood Watch Program. These volunteers provide residents with up-to-date information about criminal activity in our community. We have an email distribution system that enabiles us to easily notify you about any problems in the Village or local area.

Tellico Village has two fine Sheriff’s departments protecting our neighborhoods. Both Sheriff Tim Guider of Loudon County and Sheriff Bill Bivens of Monroe County welcome your calls concerning suspicious activity.

But remember, the most important part of any neighborhood watch program is you and your neighbor watching out for one another. If you are not yet a part of the Neighborhood Watch Program, make sure you contact your Block Captain today.
