The Special Services Department is responsible for safety education, outreach programs and victim support services. Special Services offers a comprehensive program to assist crime victims and other persons with special problems requiring police intervention, with an emphasis on services to victims of crimes against persons. Highly trained personnel are available to offer immediate assistance and support at the scene of the crime, including crisis intervention, accompaniment to legal and medical proceedings, and linkages to other University and community resources. Given the individual's authorization, they can interact with an academic department, Housing Services or College Houses and Academic Programs to coordinate support in these areas.
