National Night Out (NNO) is a national community-building campaign promoting police-community partnerships. The event, held annually on the first Tuesday in August, is centered around four key initiatives:
Along with traditional displays of outdoor lights and front porch vigils, Virginia Beach neighborhoods celebrate NNO through a variety of events and activities such as cookouts, visits from Virginia Beach Police Department (VBPD) officers, other first responders, City leadership and community partners, as well as parades, flashlight walks, contests, youth programs, and more.
NNO has proven to be an effective, inexpensive, and enjoyable program to promote neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships as VBPD aims to keep Virginia Beach among the safest communities in the nation.
