National Program of Service

Program of Service

The National Exchange Club's Program of Service is the fountainhead for the Child Abuse Prevention, Community Service, Americanism, and Youth programs conducted by local Exchange Clubs. It is the most comprehensive program of its kind ever presented for the consideration of local clubs, their membership and the public by any American organization. It may be adapted for use, in whole or in part, by any Exchange Club.

Crime Prevention, one of the key programs in the Community Service area, has been a major avenue of Exchange service since the 1940s. Since its inception, Exchange's Crime Prevention program has been endorsed by many Presidents of the United States as well as many of the nation's leading law enforcement officials. Exchange Clubs participate in a wide array of related activities, including Police Officer of the Year Awards, Child Identification and Junior Police Programs. The majority of clubs kick off their anticrime campaigns during the October observance of National Crime Prevention Month.
