Victim Services

The Special Victim Liaison is responsible for attending all forensic interviews of children who have been victimized in our jurisdiction, as well as being available upon request from outside agencies. They act as a liaison between Law Enforcement, the children, and their parents or guardians. The Special Victim Liaison then discusses the interview with a representative from Childrenz Haven, a child advocacy center, the Polk County Criminal District Attorney’s Office, and the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. 

The Special Victim Liaison is grant-funded through the Criminal Justice Division Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant.
