Good day,
As we approach the end of 2024, a year marked by hard work and dedication to crime prevention, we want to remind you that the NCA is always here for you, available 24/7 to support you in times of emergency.
While many are starting to unwind for the holiday season, it’s important to stay vigilant. Criminal activity tends to spike during this time, and letting your guard down can make you an easy target. It is well known that crime rates increase significantly in December.
While people may go on vacation, criminals never take a break.
As the CEO of the NCA, I, along with my Management Team and our Nationwide NCA Response members, will continue to be on call, ready to assist 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Our mission is to protect you to the best of our ability, guided by the strength and wisdom given to us by our Heavenly Father, ensuring that we are equipped to handle any situation effectively. The NCA does not rest. We remain vigilant in our commitment to combat crime and safeguard our communities across the country. We understand the toll crime can take, both emotionally and physically.
Every head of a household carries the responsibility of keeping their family safe. Have you taken the necessary precautions? We wish you a joyful and peaceful holiday season, filled with precious moments with your loved ones.
We never give up!
Best regards,
BEN ALMERO
CEO & DIRECTOR
