This week is National Crime Victims’ Rights Week, and the Cape Coral Police Department has put certain steps in place for neighbors in the community who become victims to crime.
The CCPD offers several programs as well as one-on-one assistance to help people in crisis. The victim assistance unit says it deals with around 5,000 cases a year, and because Cape Coral’s population is booming, that number will probably only continue to go up.
But these aren’t all crime victims in need of help: the unit deals with non-victims as well. That could mean anything from a death in the family to assisting the elderly. Some of the victim assistance advocates told WINK News what’s most rewarding about their jobs.
