10 While establishing itself, the Chittenden County Victim Access Project tried to convene meetings of Jewish, Muslim, and Buddhist leaders in the county. The project received responses primarily from the Christian clergy; however, its recommendations are intended to be faith-inclusive and generally applicable. Although the method of outreach chosensending letters of invitation to faith leaders—was not effective, the group attracted the attention of the Vermont Ecumenical Council (VEC). The executive secretary of VEC subsequently published a series of articles in VEC's newsletter encouraging clergy to become involved in the access project. Also through the VEC executive secretary, the training director from the Vermont Center for Crime Victim Services was invited to speak to the VEC executive board about victim assistance. Collectively, these efforts led to a series of trainings offered to faith leaders around the state and to the creation of the Peaceful Communities Committee.
