N
EXTDOOR.COM is the private
social network for you, your
neighbors and your community. It’s
the easiest way for you and your neighbors to
talk online and make all of your lives better in
the real world. And it’s free. The mission is to
use the power of technology to build stronger
and safer neighborhoods.
Daniel Garcia, Chief of Police for Phoenix
PD, recently announced that Phoenix PD will
be using Nextdoor in an effort to facilitate
virtual neighborhood watches and help foster
neighbor-to-neighbor and police-to-resident
communication.
Nextdoor is “a tool for us to effectively
share crime prevention and safety updates,
free events and emergency notifications. You
can expect to receive crime and safety updates
from Phoenix PD on Nextdoor specific to your
neighborhood.”
Information is empowering! Providing
you with vital information relative to your
neighborhood is extremely important to me
and to the Phoenix officers. Policing is not the
sole responsibility of the police, but rather a
shared responsibility between the police and
the entire community.
Please remember, that the Internet is not a
secure medium and that third parties may be
able to obtain information regarding users’
activities.
As a reminder, calling 911 should remain
your priority to request emergency services,
to report criminal or suspicious activity, to file
police reports, etc.
We look forward to using Nextdoor to build
stronger, safer neighborhoods throughout
Phoenix!

Community Action Officer (For the Canyon
Corridor, Community Action Officers are
Officers Matt Martinez & Joe Trujillo)
