“Circle the wagons is a utah based non-profit organization that provides survivors of violent crime, their family members and their friends with information and resources to help them recover from the trauma of their experience. Circle the wagons founder vickie walker launched the organization to support people who are in the unfortunate position of having to cope in the aftermath of a violent crime without adequate support and information. Vickies first hand experience began when her husband jeff was killed during the trolley square rampage on february 12, 2007 in salt lake city, utah at the trolley square mall. Her son, a.j., 16-years old at the time, was also shot but miraculously survived. The incredible support of family and friends who circled the wagons around vickie and her family ultimately helped them find the courage to move on after this horrific event. By sharing her experience and knowledge, vickie hopes to help others find the support they need to heal more quickly and find joy in life again.”

“Ctw established new partnerships with south salt lake, west valley city and sandy city police departments to distribute cans of comfort in their communities. Our partnerships now reach 775,000 people across the wasatch front. Our annual porch party last august was a tremendous success and raised important funds for our can of comfort program and educational outreach efforts-including training law enforcement officers and victims' advocates. Our board of directors also established a scholarship fund for children of innocent victims of violent crime. A formal announcement will be coming soon during 2016, we plan to help even more victims of violent crime and bring increased awareness to the importance of victim resources. We hope that we can count on your support in the coming months as we grow our efforts in utah and beyond.”
