Empowering Survivors of Violence and Abuse

CRITFC’s Victim Assistance Program advocates for victims of crime and offer services that will establish an environment that is free of violence and a community that works to break the cycles of trauma.

We provide direct support to victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, stalking, human trafficking, elder abuse, and other violent crimes. By collaborating with our local and tribal community partners we hope to reach all Native people along the river that are in need of services and support.
