 The Victim Crisis Response Team is a dedicated group of trained volunteers who assist local law enforcement agencies in responding to the immediate needs of victims and those in crisis. It is our goal to ensure that victims and witnesses of crime are treated with dignity, respect, fairness, compassion, courtesy, and sensitivity.
