ABOUT
CRIME
VICTIM SERVICES
EMPATHY & RESPECT SINCE 1980
Driven by a commitment to ending violence and oppression, we at Crime Victim Services are a community of advocates and change makers. We strive to make a positive impact and advocate with integrity, while living out our values of collaboration, belonging, compassion & growth.
Our mission is simple, to help victims prevail over the trauma of their victimization by assisting and advocating for safety, healing, justice, and restitution.
But our vision is big, cultivating a community free from violence and oppression.
And it is by living out our values on a daily basis, both within and outside of our agency walls that we believe we will make our vision a reality.
