Subject: Question for Utah Office for Victims of Crime Chair

July 8, 2023

Dear Utah Office for Victims of Crime Board Chair and Licensed Physician Dr. Brooks Keeshin,

Do you believe  there should be a "Utah Victim Advocate of the Year" award and accompanying generous cash prize conferred each year on the Victim Advocate in Utah who distinguished himself or herself through outstanding services he or she provided to crime victims in this state in the most recent previous calendar year?

I was not able to find any reference to any such awards tradition or award  when I Googled the subject online today.

I am very hopeful that your state-government agency or some religious group or civic group or law-enforcement agency  or other government agency here in Utah will be willing to promote establishment of this type of annual awards tradition for Utah.

Sincerely and Best Wishes,

John Kevin McMillan, 535 South 200 East, Apt. 912, Salt Lake City, UT 84111.

My cell phone: (512) 993-7305.

My home phone: (801) 355-0850.
