Operation Town Watch Integrated Services (TWIS) promotes neighborhood safety through Community Policing and through our Community Support initiative, which provides for intervention and capacity building. The services we provide promote safety in the neighborhood by engaging institutions, community- based organizations, and local leaders to dialogue toward developing an agenda for action. These actions and plans involve pre and post intervention services while developing viable partnerships. TWIS' comprehensive approach to intervention will leave a community better able to identify, prioritize and implement it's own action plan to address their challenges. The services provided include:
