Link- KENTUCKY DOMESTIC VIOLENCE LINKS

Fayette County Sheriff’s Office Advocates assist victims after they file an Emergency Protective Order (EPO) – a civil order that protects the Petitioner from acts of violence by the Respondent. The Victim Services Division then assesses the crisis and gives access to resources for managing the trauma of domestic violence. Victims may speak with a deputy to help them form a safety plan, or speak with our advocates to obtain a safe ride to their court hearing or develop a strategy for long-term recovery.
