The Mecklenburg County Victim/Witness Assistance Program is designed to provide support, counsel and, if necessary, referral to available community services for victims of crime. This program, located adjacent to the office of the Commonwealth’s Attorney, Nora J. Miller, helps to insure that fair and compassionate treatment is given to all victims and witnesses of crime.
