National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie.

Millions of neighbors take part in National Night Out across thousands of communities from all fifty states, U.S. territories and military bases worldwide on the first Tuesday in August (Texas and select areas celebrate on the first Tuesday in October). Neighborhoods host block parties, festivals, parades, cookouts and various other community events with safety demonstrations, seminars, youth events, visits from emergency personnel, exhibits and much, much more.

On Tuesday, August 1, 2023, from 5:30 to 8:00 pm residents throughout Morris County and across the nation are asked to lock their doors, turn on their outside lights, and spend the evening with neighbors and local law enforcement.
