Domestic Violence Response Team (DVRT)
The DVRT program is a collaboration between Catalyst and the Chico Police, Butte County Sheriff’s, Oroville Police, Gridley Police, and the University Police departments. The goal of this collaboration is to provide immediate support, intervention and referrals to victims of domestic violence by having volunteers respond to the scene of domestic violence once the police have arrived and the abuser is secured. DVRT also provides court accompaniment, case management, and crisis intervention services.
