The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Iowa will participate in National Night Out events on August 5, 2025. The office will join law enforcement partners and local communities across the district for the event.

“National Night Out is a perfect opportunity for neighbors to join with their law enforcement and community partners to demonstrate that crime does not rule the night,” said U.S. Attorney Timothy T. Duax. “Keeping our neighborhoods safe is a true team effort. National Night Out allows us to acknowledge the accomplishments of our neighborhood organizations that keep communities safe, and to thank our law enforcement officers for putting their lives on the line for us.”

National Night Out is an annual campaign focused on building relationships between law enforcement agencies and the communities they serve, aiming to make neighborhoods safer. Each year, millions of people in thousands of communities across the United States participate in events held on the first Tuesday of August.

The program began in 1984 with support from the Bureau of Justice Assistance within the U.S. Department of Justice and is managed by the National Association of Town Watch, a national nonprofit organization.
