AnnouncementsThe Larimer County Sheriff’s Office

and Fort Collins Police Services are look-ing for compassionate and caring people to serve as victim advocates. Victim advocates provide a valuable service for the community by assisting victims and protecting their rights.

In addition to needed emotional sup-

port and crisis intervention, advocates offer information about the criminal jus-tice system and the resources available to the victim.

Advocates are asked to work four to six 12-hour shifts per month and attend a meeting each month. Volunteers must be at least 21 years of age, complete 40-50 hours of training and successfully complete the application process which includes a criminal history check and a background investigation.
