SOUTH HUTCHINSON, Kan. — An event is going on Thursday to commemorate National Crime Victims' Rights Week in Reno County.

Andrew Davidson with the Reno County Attorney's Office accepted a proclamation for the week at Wednesday's county commission meeting.

"I would like to invite everyone to the South Hutchinson Community Center Thursday, April 25 at 6:30 p.m. for our ceremony and service for victims' rights week," said Davidson.

There is a candle lighting and last year they had a sand pouring ceremony to commemorate victims of crime in Reno County. 

This year's theme is "How would you help? Options, services and hope for crime survivors." The event is sponsored by the Reno County District Attorney's Office, Horizons Mental Health Child Advocacy Center, BrightHouse and the Hutchinson Regional Medical Center SANE/SART Team.
