About Night to Unite

Started by the Minnesota Crime Prevention Association, a statewide, non-profit organization of citizens, law enforcement officers, and crime prevention specialists, Night to Unite was created to promote, develop and advance crime prevention programs.

Traditionally, community neighborhoods throw potluck parties, BBQs or ice-cream socials with their neighbors. Many party organizers invite city staff members to join in fun which means they may have police officers, firefighters, public works employees, the Mayor, council members and other city employees stop into visit. Kids and adults are able to get a closer look at police squads, fire trucks, plow trucks, and other city vehicles. The program seeks to strengthen neighborhood and community partnerships, raise awareness about drug and crime prevention, visit about future and current city projects, and just get to know your local government in a fun social setting. Citizens can feel free to ask questions about the city, projects, goals, and how everything works. We want to create an environment for citizen's to feel comfortable visiting with us and know that were are here to support them and make this a great place to live!
