▲'''Vehicle Theft Protection Program''' is an educational initiative in [[North America]] started by the [[National Insurance Crime Bureau]] (NICB) and LoJack Corporation designed to help owners of cars, motorcycles, construction equipment and commercial vehicles better understand how to protect their assets from theft.
The two theft prevention organizations kick off the annual program each year by designating July as "National Vehicle Theft Protection Month" -- as July has one of the highest vehicle theft rates.
▲=== History ===
The "Vehicle Theft Protection Program" was launched in late June 2007 by NICB, a [[not-for-profit organization]] dedicated to stopping vehicle theft and [[insurance fraud]], and LoJack Corporation, a company that provides tracking and recovery systems for stolen mobile assests.<ref>[http://www.revver.com/video/327112/lojack-nicb-kick-off-education-initiative-with-survey-that-reveals-americans-are-vulnerable-to-vehicle-and-associated-identity-theft/] Revver Vehicle Theft Protection Video </ref>

Now in its second year, the educational initiative aims to raise consumer awareness of vehicle theft and theft protection through a series of events, informative materials, podcasts, surveys and a presence on a variety of websites.
