In participating with the Elizabethton Police Department, a police sub-station has
been developed within the public housing community.

Two officers are assigned to the sub-station.  The officers conduct community
checks and patrols.  They participate with EHDA resident visits, meetings and
projects.

Activities to name a few include Bicycle Safety, K-9 Demonstrations, Drug
Awareness Prevention, Self-Defense classes and Neighborhood Watch Programs.

Funding for the program is obtained by the EHDA.

The goal of the substation is to bring police and citizens together to prevent crime
and solve neighborhood problems.  This is being achieved through Community
Policing.  The philosophy of Community Policing places an emphasis on preventing
crime before it happens.  Community policing gives citizens more control over the
quality of life in their community.

By working together, police and residents will achieve a common goal of a safer
neighborhood
911 should be called for
ALL emergencies.  If
available, the substation
officers will respond to
these calls.

The phone number is
423-543-6603.

PROTECT YOURSELF

Guard your Medicare and Social Security numbers.  Treat them like you
would treat your credit cards.  Be suspicious of anyone who offers you
free medical equipment or services and then requests your Medicare
number.  If it is free, they do not need your number.  Do not let anyone
borrow or pay to use your Medicare ID card or your identity.  It is illegal
and it is not worth it.

If your Medicare card is lost or stolen, report it right away.  Call Social
Security at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) for a replacement.
