Cache County Coordinated Community Response Team

The Cache County Coordinated Community Response Team (CCRT) is a community of individuals who work to ensure campus and community safety, increase support services and accountability, and create a respectful environment to address and reduce gender-based violence for people who visit, learn, work, and live at Utah State University. This team has been formed through a three-year grant from the U.S. Office on Violence Against Women.
