Medicine Hat Police eager to put victims of crime funding to good use
MEDICINE HAT, AB – Medicine Hat Police are praising a move from the province that will see funding for programs related to victims of crime increased.
On Friday, the provincial government announced they would be adding another $4.5 million to their Victims of Crime Fund, to be spread across seven communities.
Medicine Hat will be one of those centres, as funding has been doubled for Medicine Hat Police’s Victims Assistance Unit from $150,000 to $300,000 per year over the next three years.
