Rural Services Expansion and Collaboration

Project Director: Tricia Swartling
(208) 788-4191

This project seeks to improve handling of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking cases by the criminal justice system and victim advocates in Blaine County, as well as the surrounding rural counties. The Advocates will continue to expand coordinated victim services for under-served rural women and/or Spanish speaking immigrant women and increase their access to services throughout the project region in order to increase victim safety and increase reporting of domestic and dating violence, sexual assault and stalking incidents.
