Barrhead Victim Services
If you are a victim of a crime or serious trauma, you can expect to be treated with courtesy, compassion, and respect. Victim Service Units are staffed with trained, caring people who offer information, assistance, and support during the police investigation, during times of trauma or crisis, and throughout the criminal justice process.
