“Salient CRGT is proud to announce its latest app addition to its Voyager Platform product line; the Victim Notification Form (VNF) app. The need for effective communication between law enforcement agencies and victims is a paramount focus. Salient CRGT has developed a new smartphone app that provides secure, effective, and efficient communication between victims, law enforcement agencies, and victim advocacy groups.

This makes court function better and keeps deputies and officers attending to patrol and other law enforcement functions. Also, if the victim does not speak/read English fluently, the deputy can simply tap a button to change the form and have the victim’s information sent to them in Spanish…”
