Victim/Witness Services for Coconino County Volunteer Information
The Victim Advocate Volunteer Program is a two-part program. The first part is a crisis response team. After completing the in-house training of 20 hours, the volunteers will respond on-scene, in a team, to assist victims of crime and crisis. The team is paged out by law enforcement or the hospital to provide crisis intervention, which entails the provision of crisis counseling and appropriate referrals based on the needs of each specific client. The second part of the volunteer program is the in-office portion. These volunteers go through a briefer training and volunteer during office hours to assist with courtroom advocacy, emergency legal advocacy, fundraising, and general in-office support.
