Been about a year.

Supes mull grant application

The Humboldt County Board of Supervisors will consider a recommendation Tuesday to authorize the chairperson to execute a grant application for 2007-08 for the Victim Witness Assistance Program.

According to board documents, the Victim Witness Division of the District Attorney’s Office has been receiving funding from the state and federal government to provide services to victims of crimes since 1982.

The funding will allow for the continuation of services for an additional fiscal year. The Victim Witness Assistance Program provides support and crisis intervention to more than 2,000 residents per year, according to board documents.


It's a good thing someone cares about this important program.
