Westlock Community Victim Services provides crisis support in rural Alberta with reserves exactly at the peer median and fundraising costs of just 1.5%, demonstrating careful stewardship of limited resources. With 31 years of continuous registration and a clean governance record, this small community organization punches above its weight in delivering victim support services.
Our Verdict: A well-run rural victim services organization with healthy reserves and low overhead. Compensation at 65% of revenue is the norm for staffing-intensive crisis services where trained counsellors and advocates are the program itself.
