Connect your business to the local safety network.
Sans Souci Community Watch is building a local business safety contact list so
nearby businesses, residents, apartment communities, and JSO resources can be
better connected.
Not official JSO. Emergencies and formal reports go directly to JSO.
Two connected paths
Local coordination through SSCW. Official program participation through JSO.

Receive prevention reminders and local safety updates.
Help connect daytime business awareness with after-hours neighborhood awareness.
Improve communication among businesses, residents, apartments, and JSO resources.
