Goodbye to Catherine Hix

Catherine Hix, our Victim Services Coordinator for Snohomish and Island Counties, has left Victim Support Services for a new opportunity. In her three and one half years at VSS she  implemented various ways to facilitate peer support through community events and support groups. She built lasting relationships through her advocacy work. Catherine’s knowledge and passion for serving victims of crime will be missed by everyone here at VSS.

Velvet Heaps, who has been our Crisis Line Coordinator for the past 3 years, has accepted the position of Victim Services Coordinator for Snohomish and Island Counties. We welcome her compassion for working with victims of crime as well as the knowledge of resources she brings to the position.
