Bush in January 2002, Citizen Corps is currently composed of five national programs: Neighborhood Watch, Volunteers in Police Service, Operation TIPS, Community Emergency Response Teams, and Medical Reserve Corps. There are, however, many ongoing, credible programs that support the Citizen Corps' mission. Providing formal recognition to these programs and similar organizations by affiliating them with Citizen Corps will enable the program to reach its goal of having every American participate in making their communities and families safer.
