March on Crime

Since 1984, the Houston Police Department has organized a crime prevention outreach week in March called #MarchOnCrime. In support of this proactive public safety campaign, Tracy Harrison, NHD Vice President of Public Safety, joins members of the HPD North Belt Division, Harris County Sheriff’s Office Task Force, and the District’s Public Safety Committee for a local program called #KnockAndTalks.

This annual public safety outreach campaign fosters one-on-one engagement, allows law enforcement to share useful crime prevention tips with local residents, and helps officers build relationships with the community. Our 2024 Knock and Talks event was one for the books.
