Victim Assistance began moving Wednesday from its long-time location on Furnace Street to its new home in the Delaware building, 137 S. Main St. in downtown Akron.

During the transition, the agency won’t provide walk-in service, but will continue serving crime victims through its 24-hour hotline, which is 330-376-0040.

Walk-in service will resume at 8 a.m. Monday at the new location on the third floor of the Delaware building. This floor can be accessed through the building’s lobby – using the elevator – or a doorway off of Bowery Street.

The agency is moving because it outgrew the space it occupied for 46 years.
