As the largest federal law enforcement agency in the US, the FBI has the significant share of the workload in the identification of, and in providing assistance to victims and witnesses. The Bureau's Victim/Witness Assitance Program (VWAP) was established to help assist those who have suffered direct, or threatened physical, emotional, or other kind of harm as a result of a commission of a crime in which the FBI has been involved in the investigation. The FBI provides victims and witnesses with their first, and sometimes only, contact with the federal criminal justice system. The Salt Lake City Division has a VWAP Coordinator, who is the point of contact in such instances, and Special Agents will sometimes act as liason in the coordination of the program's activities and services with outside agencies and organizations.
