Kate Perrill has been selected as the 45th Judge Conrad L. Ball Award recipient. Perrill has been the Victim Witness Division Manager for the Larimer County District Attorney’s Victim Witness Division, since 2017. She began work with the DA’s Office as a Victim Advocate and was promoted to manager of that unit in 2018, supervising between 12 to 13 employees in the last five years. Perrill began her career with Larimer County in 2010 with Larimer County Human Services.
Perrill’s current team consists of seven Victim’s Wellness Specialists who are responsible for a variety of duties, the most important of those ensuring D.A.’s Office adheres to the statutory requirements of the Colorado Victim Rights Act. The act directs the DA’s Office to ensure that victims of crime in our community are treated with fairness, dignity, and respect. Perrill’s team serves about 6,500 victims each year to ensure they are informed and connected to resources in our community and have needed support as they traverse through the frightening and unfamiliar environment in the criminal justice system.
