Every city grapples with the issue of crime, and Houston is no exception. While no neighborhood is immune from crime, all can benefit from increased security. The VC Security Foundation (“the Foundation”) was created in November 2015 as a 501(c)(3), non-profit corporation with the vision of improving safety and security in our neighborhoods. The Foundation brings together the Lewisdale, Park Civic and Vermont Commons neighborhoods and functions as administrator for our neighborhood Constable Patrol.
