Hancock Park Block Captains

Hancock Park Homeowners Association ’48, has an established block captain program promoting neighbor-to-neighbor communication and neighborhood watch. Our block captains play an important role in creating and maintaining our sense of community in Hancock Park and we are very grateful for their work!

For our new neighbors, welcome to the neighborhood! Please reach out to your block captain (listed below) with your contact info to be part of our network and we will deliver one of our fabulous HPHA welcome bags stuff chock full of great neighborhood info. Contact Block Captain committee chair Jennifer DeVore for your block captain contact info. 

The HPHA’48 sends out updates containing information about neighborhood and city activities in Hancock Park in general. This communication includes information on issues, projects and security we feel need to be brought to our residents attention.  We also have an excellent track record of reuniting lost and found pets with their owners using our quick email communication system!

Neighborhood Watch is also a component of what our block captains do. Block captains are asked to report any incident in their area to the HPHA so that this information can be circulated to the block captain network. Please contact our HPHA Security chair Marty Beck for more information on security companies. We also copy the LAPD and our private security companies. In this way, the neighborhood is kept informed and a record of incidents is generated. Please report all crimes to the LAPD and your Private Security Companies. Remember to list the time and date of the incident and any significant descriptions.

Below is a list of our current block captains. Please email our Block Captain Chair with your name and your address and we will send you the contact info for your block captain.

Are you interested in becoming a Block Captain for one of our blocks currently without representation?

Hancock Park Block Captain Duties:

1. Create a block information sheet for each residence on your block. Update the block sheet once a year or as needed and make sure each residence on your block has a copy. The information sheet should include: House number, name of residents, names of those working in the household, animals, contact phone numbers (home, work and cell) and e-mail addresses. 
2. Use the block's emails as a way of distributing neighborhood information, announcements or for emergency situations. The HPHA’48 may forward information to you so you can forward it to your block. 
3. Share the HPHA'48 website with any new neighbors!  www.HancockPark.org
4. Host an Annual Block meeting for the residents on your block!  It's fun and people have a chance to connect with their neighbors. It's also a great way to introduce new homeowners to the rest of the block!
5. Serve as the liaison between the residents on your block and the HPHA’48. Attend the Annual HPHA’48 Block Captain dinner meeting and the occasional Block Captain meetings.
6. Work with the HPHA’48 Security Chair to set up a meeting for your block to discuss neighborhood watch ideas with LAPD, and Private patrol companies SSA and ADT…as needed.
