Provo Police Victims Services Program Coordinator Lily Ramires

Provo Police Victims Services Program Coordinator Lily Ramires uses her Bachelor of Psychology and minor of Criminal Justice in her career with Provo Police Victim Services. She serves as a Spanish-speaking advocate and liaison between victims and community resources, prosecutors, detectives, and other agencies. She aids victims with adult and child protective orders and informs victims of their rights. She also supports victims as they navigate the criminal justice system.

Lily truly loves the opportunity to engage and help her community, advocating for those going through one of their most vulnerable moments. As the Victim Services Program Coordinator, Lily has found that educating our community is vital to ensure survivors are aware of services and resources that are available to them.

Serving victims and raising awareness regarding domestic violence, sexual assault and crimes against children is her passion and one of the most rewarding experiences of her life. Lily finds strength from inspirational quotes, with her favorite being “She believed she could, so she did!”

When not serving victims, Lily Ramires is a busy wife and mother of two wonderful children.
