About Tracey Tabet …
As the administrator for the Utah Children’s
Justice Center Program, Tracey Tabet oversees the
state’s 15 Children’s Justice Centers, which provide a
friendly, homelike atmosphere designed to help children
feel safe and comfortable while they are being
interviewed regarding alleged abuse. Last year close to
5,000 children were interviewed at Utah’s centers.
Tracey also serves as the
coordinator for the Utah Chapter of the National
Children’s Alliance, the national membership
organization that promotes a comprehensive, coordinated
response to victims of child abuse through the
advocacy/justice center model.
The program housed in the Utah Attorney General’s
Office, where Tracey has worked since 1994. She served
as Deputy Chief of Staff for former Attorney General Jan
Graham and helped developed several initiatives on
domestic violence, gang prevention, and Internet safety.
She has worked closely with elected leaders and
community advocates to promote more resources for
victims, better training for law enforcement, and
stronger criminal penalties for perpetrators. She served
for eight years on the Utah Coalition Against Sexual
Assault Board of Trustees and currently serves on the
Governor’s Sexual Violence Council.
A graduate of the University of Utah and
Westminster College, Tracey has a Masters Degree in
Communication, as well as degrees in public relations
and sociology. She also freelances as a political
consultant and serves on the Holladay City Arts Council.
