ISSUE 14
At Victim Assistance Program, we rarely get political. However, we would like to ask our supporters to learn more about Issue 14, which is seeking to renew the County of Summit Alcohol, Drug Addiction and Mental Health (ADM) Services Board levy.

The County of Summit ADM Services Board funds treatment, prevention and supportive services that safeguard our community. Your support for Issue 14 helps maintain funding for these critical programs and services. Vote FOR Issue 14 on or before November 5th!

Mardi Gras Gala
Saturday, March 7, 2020
For the last 25+ years proceeds from our Mardi Gras Gala have directly impacted victims of crime and trauma in Summit County. The strong support of generous donors like you allow our advocates to provide 24-hour crime scene response, crisis intervention, and advocacy to over 6,300 victims a year.
 
On Saturday, March 7, 2020 over 400 guests will once again turn The Tangier in Akron into a night out on Bourbon Street. Guests will enjoy a gourmet meal, an open bar, live & silent auctions while helping us reach our fundraising goal of $130,000!

Our Mardi Gras Planning Committee is now hard at work ensuring that the event is a success! To learn more about how YOU can help make this year's Mardi Gras Gala a night to remember, click the link below.
