Victim Notification
Victim Information and Notification Everyday (VINE) is a solution that lets victims
of crime and other concerned citizens access timely and reliable information
regarding offenders.

It is free of charge and is completely confidential. Offering peace of mind and
services in multiple languages,
VINE allows crime victims call a toll free number,
visit the
VINE website, or download the mobile app to anonymously check an
offender's status.

Crime victims can register to receive automated notifications about changes in
custody status via their choice of format either by phone, email, or text.

You can call
VINE at 866-727-2846.

You can download the app from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.
