Neighborhood Watch...

Pablo Bay's Neighborhood Watch Program #2006344 is about thwarting crime.  We take the safety of our neighborhood seriously and are working with the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office (JSO) on an proactive basis. 

JSO has committed to provide Pablo Bay with program resources including annual meetings, watch program signs, and access to community reports, but it is ultimately up to our Residents to make this program successful.  As such, we have created a team of dedicated volunteers to help make our community safer.

In combination with our currently employed JSO Officers, our team consists of Coordinators and assistants, Block Captains and assistants and Patrol Officers.
