The Block Action Team (BAT) Program, an initiative of Los Altos Community Foundation (LACF), improves community preparedness levels and strengthens our ability to respond to disasters. 

While many regular BAT activities have been suspended during the current crisis, we encourage you to safely get to know each other, share resources, and create safer and more resilient neighborhoods. 

BATs are also aligned with Neighborhood Watch for crime prevention, and with Community Emergency Response Team members (CERTs) and “HAM” radio operators to prepare for emergencies.

In-person BAT training and information sessions are currently on hold, but we have begun pilot sessions of online training and drills for 2021.

If you would like start a new BAT, please complete our BAT Contact Form and we will help you get set up.
