SUBJECT: Survey of City of Yakima Response
Attached is a spreadsheet comparing the City of Yakima domestic violence response to the
Blueprint for Safety model response. The Blueprint for Safety model response was developed �
using the data collected from the N1|nnoaoto Coordinated Community Response to OmmewUo
Violence and ia considered en evidence based response.
At the heart of the Blue Print for Safety model is the Coordinated Community Response Team �
(CCRT). Coordinated in that the team shares common goals and works cooperatively to
ensure that their actions further the common goals and also enable other agencies to fulfill their
goals. The training | attended in July was focused on measuring CCF|T results. At the tnaining,
teams from around the country shared their collective gVo|e. | noted common themes among
the gom|n, which are as follows: Protect the vintinn, do no harm to the vicUno, and hold the
defendant accountable. Every policy and protocol in a coordinated response is measured
through the goal lens.
| have proposed the formation of a City of Yakima CCRT. To prepare this survey | met with
most of the agencies involved in the City of Yakima response. All of those | spoke with were
interested in participating ina City nf Yakima CCF|T. While not all mf the model policies may be
feasible for the City of Yakima, | believe m City of Yakima CCRT could develop a coordinated
response using available resources and make naoonnnnmndotionn on ways to enhance the
response with additional resources.
