Crime Victims’ Rights Program

Ensuring Crime Victims’ Rights are Understood, Honored, and Enforced

The Crime Victims’ Rights Program facilitates collaboration among practitioners in the adult criminal justice and juvenile justice systems, as well as nonprofit victim advocacy organizations. The goal of the program is to ensure crime victims’ constitutional and statutory rights are understood, honored, and enforced at every point of contact within the criminal justice system. The program also provides resources in the form of printed materials including a practitioner’s guide, crime victims’ rights brochures, law enforcement pocket cards and a best practice guide.
