The funding is being delivered through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ontario.ca\/page\/community-safety-initiatives-and-resources\">Victim Support Grant program<\/a> and includes $100,000for Woodstock Police Service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Woodstock Police Service (WPS), in partnership with Victim Assistance Service Oxford County, will work together to ensure people feel safe, secure, and supported in the community. In addition to initiatives to raise awareness about human trafficking, intimate partner violence, and child exploitation, funding will be used to help meet victim needs beyond what is available through counselling and legal support. WPS will provide \u201cgo bags\u201d to victims that contain personal care, nutrition, contact information, and comfort and activity items for youth victims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis funding is very welcome in our community,\u201d said Ernie Hardeman, MPP for Oxford. \u201cIt will help to further the important work already being done to fight crime in Oxford and across Ontario. We will continue supporting victims of crime by investing in our police services to maintain safe communities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSupport for victims and survivors is a crucial first step to recovery,\u201d said Solicitor General Michael Kerzner. \u201cThis important grant is part of our government\u2019s plan to combat violent crime on our streets and ensure that victims are not left behind.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ontario.ca\/page\/community-safety-initiatives-and-resources\">Victim Support Grant<\/a> (VSG) is part of&nbsp;<a
