Purpose:
|
The organization will offer its Family Access Services Toronto initiative (F.A.S.T. Access) to victims of domestic violence in Rexdale within the Toronto Police Service 23 Division. F.A.S.T. will respond immediately to referrals from investigators and detectives following primary police response using a mobile response model in locations that are suitable, safe, accessible and comfortable for the victim. This initiative will remove barriers to accessing services and systems by bringing F.A.S.T. access to the victim, thus reducing violence in the lives of families, while proving more cost effective than a co-location model with reduced occupancy costs.
