About Us
We are dedicated to serving victims of all crime types
The National Center for Victims of Crime is dedicated to serving individuals, families, and communities harmed by crime.
We believe that a society that prioritizes the safety and healing of communities, responds to the needs of all individuals harmed by crime, promotes victims’ rights, and engages in advocacy for systems change is able to reduce the crime and its impact on victims and their families.
