What is G.A.I.N. night?

G.A.I.N, Getting Arizonans Involved in Neighborhoods, is an annual community-building campaign that promotes community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live.

Getting to know your neighbor is an important step towards staying safe. Those who know and care about each other are aware of work and travel schedules, and can watch each others homes. Neighbors who enjoy good relationships are more comfortable reporting crime and suspicious activity to the police, and are more likely to work together to keep a great quality of life in their neighborhood.
