A NEW initiative is being piloted in Carmarthenshire to tackle race crime and disability related harassment and hate crime.
The new pilot process is being led by the police and involves all key stakeholder agencies, including social services and housing.
A Multi-Agency Risk Assessment Conference (MARAC) process identifies and intervenes in the most high-risk cases to prevent the escalation of harassment, abuse, and violence, and to protect victims from further harm.
The MARAC process involves organisations discussing vulnerable victims and agreeing how best to protect and support them. Since the process began in August, there have been five MARAC meetings and a total of 15 vulnerable people discussed with safety action plans completed.
