LINCOLN—Gov. Jim Pillen proclaimed January 2025 as Crime Stoppers Month in Nebraska, highlighting the vital role of these nonprofits in enhancing public safety.The proclamation urges all Nebraskans to recognize Crime Stoppers Month and the importance of citizen involvement in crime prevention.
Crime Stoppers provides secure and anonymous channels for citizens to report criminal activity. Tips can be submitted online, via the P3 mobile app or by calling local Crime Stoppers numbers. If a tip leads to an arrest, the tipster may be eligible for a cash reward.
As nonprofits, Crime Stoppers chapters rely entirely on private donations to pay rewards and cover operational expenses. Each local program is overseen by a volunteer civilian board of directors working in close partnership with local law enforcement agencies.
