Geauga County LOSS Team Provides Loving Lifeline

The LOSS Team members are not sworn law enforcement, but volunteers whose sole purpose is to attend to the needs of trauma survivors in times of crisis. The team is an expansion of a national model founded in 1997 to reduce maladaptive coping and increased suicide risk in survivors, specifically of suicide loss.

“We never know when we are needed, but we are always ready to respond,” said Tracy Jordan, Geauga County LOSS Team Director and Geauga County Sheriff’s Office Victim Advocate.
