including which agencies may become involved and what residents can expect next.

Future guides can cover other situations where residents need a clear answer
about who handles an issue, how to report it, and what happens after a report.
About these guidesPractical explanations, not agency publications.
Sans Souci Community Watch creates these guides to translate multi-step local
processes into clear resident references. When a guide has been reviewed by an
agency, that review is identified on the guide.
SSCW guides do not replace 911, official agency instructions, police reports,
or case-specific decisions made by responding personnel. Call 911 for an
emergency or an immediate threat to life or safety.
