A call will be made to an “Angel” volunteer from the Hope Not Handcuffs team who will come to our department and, utilizing a program placement process, will actively seek out a treatment plan. Meeting at the police department provides a safe place for Angels and program participants to meet. Angels will offer comfort items from the Angel Bins located in our department.
