The Sexual Assault & Domestic Violence Advisory Committee – Lanark County will work together in a consulting capacity to make recommendations and suggestions on matters in the community pertaining to improved services to victims of violence; strengthen interagency relationships; collaborate on interagency protocols; and develop a plan for prevention and public education.
We work under the guiding principle that each agency involved provides quality services to victims of sexual and/or domestic violence according to the policy, procedures, and mandate of their respective organizations. We also believe that the Advisory Committee shall not dictate or challenge the operations of the individual agencies, but will mutually respect the mandates of the participating organizations at the table.
