Guilford County developed a High Risk Case Review Team in response to increasing service demands and a rise in highly lethal cases of abuse, neglect, and exploitation of vulnerable children and adults. This innovative multi-disciplinary team comprises law enforcement, advocates, attorneys, medical professionals, social workers, and mental health professionals who work together strategically to address the most severe cases of domestic and sexual violence for children, adults, and older adults seeking services from Guilford County’s Family Justice Center.
