This site is provided exclusively for information sharing related to your: neighborhood, patrols, PNP activities, block watch, newsletters and projects, precinct and citywide… And all for your education.

This site is managed 100% by volunteer PNP help under the guidance and leadership of Detective Brian Kornegay, Citywide PNP Coordinator.

Funding for real expense, such as annual site hosting, software and our register domain expenses is assisted by our PNP, Phoenix Neighborhood Block Watch Grants.

This site provides a citywide communication tool for members to create friendships and share questions, experiences and successes.

Additional information is available via the “training” menu above.

What is PNP?

Phoenix Police officers train PNP members in a four hour class.

PNP members are taught to know:

  • Their neighbors!
  • Their neighborhood!
  • How to patrol with success by recognizing differences.

Because they view their neighborhood repeatedly, PNP Members recognize patterns.

They are trained to recognize differences between ALL things, people, vehicles, changes in properties and traffic, and they may see and recognize differences as not normal! 

They know what has changed! And, are trained to know, if necessary, how to call for Police, and to communicate efficiently with 911 center personnel.

There is fun, enjoyment and a sense of purpose that accompanies your involvement with the PNP program. 

In addition to helping make your own neighborhood a safer place, one of our group patrol event activities is the “First Friday” at Roosevelt and 5th St Phoenix, Az. We patrol, and report crowd problems to “Command” with special radios, and if needed, the Phoenix Police dispatcher then relays the report to local officers on the beat and is managed as needed.

The image above is from one of our patrols and was taken by Jerry Cline, a COPS and PNP volunteer for many years.

All patrolling and administrative time spent with PNP is done on a volunteer basis.  You contribute time as you are able once trained. 

This website and associated costs are partly funded by the City of Phoenix Neighborhood Block Watch grant program.  This comes from your tax dollars so remember to “Shop Phoenix” so taxes you pay continue to support programs such as ours.

The PNP adventure is entertaining, educational and fulfilling.  We encourage you to get involved and take part in the fun of the experience.

A reminder of important contact numbers:

“Suspected” Crime or suspicious circumstances;  Crime Stop:  602-26-26-151 (Option 4)

Crime in progress is an emergency….. Dial 911.
