Description

The Crime Victims' Center is a private, non-profit agency founded in 1975. Today as an advocacy agency, our primary goal is to provide direct

services to victims, co-victims and witnesses in cases of sexual assault, child abuse, robbery, homicide and other violent crimes.

The Crime Victims’ Center (CVC) of Fayette County envisions a professional state of the art facility

that provides comprehensive services to a diverse population. The goals of the agency will focus

on increasing CVC’s visibility in pursuit of decreasing victimization. The attainment of these goals

will be through:

• The continuance of public education and community outreach.
• The provision of home based services.
• The integration of specialized counseling and therapeutic techniques.
• The promotion of staff development and professional enrichment.
• The goals will be pursued while augmenting additional funding sources.
• The CVC will collaborate with all available community resources to address needs of all individuals.
