Sweetwater County Family Justice Center Info

The YWCA of Sweetwater County Family Justice Center focuses on the collaboration of multiple agencies to provide wrap-around services to victims of family violence. The Family Justice Center opened in 2012 and continues to be the first and only center of its kind in the state of Wyoming. This innovative approach provides the best victim services available, all in one location.

Under the umbrella of the YWCA, the Sweetwater County Family Justice Center and Support and Safe House, formerly two separate programs, combined to better serve victims under one name, Sweetwater County Family Justice Center. Its partner agencies are the Green River Police Department, Rock Springs Police Department, Sweetwater County Sheriff’s Department, Wyoming Highway Patrol, Department of Family Services, Southwest Counseling Services, Legal Aid of Wyoming, YWCA of Sweetwater County, Sweetwater County Victim Witness, Memorial Hospital of Sweetwater County, and Sweetwater County Attorney’s Office.

Advocates staff a 24-hour crisis line as well as a safe house with immediate safety and basic necessities for victims and their non-offending family. Together with partner agencies, victims receive services they need, all in one location, increasing reporting and prosecutions. The center is located at 725 C St in Rock Springs.

The Family Justice Center advocates, partner agencies, and all law enforcement agencies work together in order to provide more comprehensive services to victims. Victim safety and well-being are a top priority at the Family Justice Center. As one of the first responders to victims, the RSPD, GRPD, Sheriff’s Office, and WHP work to ensure that victims’ needs are met and that advocates are available to assist.

The Sweetwater County Family Justice Center is funded in part by the Division of Victim Services, Wyoming Office of Attorney General and is a United Way Community Partner.

If you or someone you know is a victim of family violence, please call 307-352-1030 to speak with an advocate. Help is available 24 hours a day.

This event is sponsored in part by:

GRPD Fraternal Order of Police, RSPD Police Protective Association, Sweetwater County Sheriff’s Office, WHP Association, YWCA, United Way, Sweetwater County Family Justice Center
