About this Organization:
In 2004, the Ross County Sheriff’s Office was awarded a three year, $ 160,000.00, “Rural Victim Assistance Grant” from the National Sheriff’s Association through the Office for Victims of Crime / U.S. Department of Justice. As only one of ten communities nationwide, and the only office in the state of Ohio to receive the grant, it was truly an honor to incorporate a program within our office to assist victims of crime. Our goal is to help victims of crime understand the criminal justice system, educate victims on programs that are available in Ross County and to address any questions or concerns that may arise in the aftermath of a crime. Project Unite's Staff includes Lt. Dale Gillette, Sgt. Teresa Franklin and Deputy Teresa Carper-Chaney. The staff is available to assist victims of any crime.
