WHO ARE WE?
WHAT DO WE DO?
The Keremeos Victim/Witness Services Program is provided by RCMP, in cooperation with the Lower Similkameen Community Services Society. We provide emotional support and practical assistance to victims of crime, their family members, witnesses of crime, and those who suffer other trauma. Our area of service includes Keremeos, Olalla, and Cawston.
