  The Child Victim Rapid Response Program (CVRR) program began in 1999 to provide the early identification of physical and sexual child abuse and neglect. CVRR places a professionally trained youth advocate within selected Collier County Public Schools. Studies have shown that children who are victims of these forms of abuse are less likely to focus on learning, are at high risk for re-victimization, can become perpetrators of violence and are at risk as adults to repeat the cycle of violence. The focus of this program is to stop the cycle of violence by assisting the child in accessing support and community services.
 Youth Advocates also conduct educational and prevention activities for youths in the classroom and provide teacher training throughout the county.
