The Atlantic Beach Police Department is committed to building a better community through interaction with citizens and visitors, crime prevention, and neighborhood programs.
Care Connection Program – This program allows Atlantic Beach Police officers to support independent senior living through regular personal connections, providing peace of mind to both seniors and their families. A simple check that means everything. Support you can count on.
Residents or family members should complete the online registration form with contact information and details about the resident’s interests. After registration, check-ups begin the following week. Participants may choose either in-person visits or phone calls.
This is a courtesy social service and response will be based on call volume.
House Check Request – The Police Department offers a free House Check Service to citizens of the Town of Atlantic Beach to help prevent crime and to protect your peace of mind while you are away from home. Simply send an email to policeadmin@atlanticbeach-nc.com with the following details listed or call the Front Desk at 252-726-2523 and our officers will keep an eye on your residence while you are gone as circumstances allow:
- Your name
- The address to be watched
- The date you are leaving
- The date you are returning (no more than 30 days at a time, please)
- Description of vehicles being left at the home (i.e. “red Honda in the driveway”)
- Description of which rooms will have lights on while you are gone (i.e. “the front room on the second story”)
- Your contact number
- Name of anyone who has permission to be on your property while you are away (i.e. “my son will be watering my plants on Wednesdays”)
Home Security Checklist – Our Home Security Checklist is designed to help you as a homeowner/resident to assess your property in terms of its vulnerability to criminals.
