100 Men Red Deer supports Central Alberta Victim and Witness Support Society

100 Men Red Deer has chosen the Central Alberta Victim and Witness Support Society to receive its latest charitable donation.

The group held its latest quarterly meeting Monday night with 64 members voting to donate $100 each to the society, meaning they will take home at least $6,400.

According to their website, the Central Alberta Victim and Witness Support Society provides services to the people of Blackfalds, Clive, Joffre, Springbrook, the Summer Village of Gull Lake, a large portion of Lacombe County, and a large portion of Red Deer County.

Victim Support can be provided at the request of a police officer, a referral from another agency, detachment walk-in or phone inquiries.  Trained Victim Support Advocates come to the immediate aid of those whose lives have been shattered by crime or tragedy. This may include someone who has been sexually assaulted, harassed, beaten, robbed, involved in a motor vehicle accident, who has experienced the sudden death of a loved one or whom has been the victim of a break in.
