Those cities that maintain low crime rates often have police departments that interact closely with residents on neighborhood safety.
According to Simi Valley Police Chief Mark E. Layhew, “The mission of the Simi Valley Police Department is to safeguard lives, protect property and ensure a quality of life whereby people within Simi Valley may enjoy a sense of peace and security.”

The Chief continues…”We accomplish this mission in cooperation with our residents and community organizations. Simi Valley’s frequent FBI rating as the Safest City in America is a result of this partnership.”

It is not a matter of just leaving it up to the police. And factually it never was.

You too need to learn the skills to protect yourself, and your family, and to contribute to keeping your neighborhood safe.
