More volunteer crisis support workers are needed in the Lethbridge Police Victim/Witness Services program. The group’s manager, Catherine Pooley, says these volunteer workers aid victims or witnesses of crime and trauma by navigating the acute challenges of their experiences. She says they are also supported in the criminal justice process. Pooley adds that community resources are also available so folks can feel empowered and regain control of their lives. Volunteers for the program must be 18 years or older and have a clean criminal check. The group is looking to add around 15 new volunteers.
