Crime Victims' Rights Week will be held from April 26 through May 2.
Sponsored by the Office for Victims of Crime, the event promotes awareness of victims' rights issues. This year's theme is 25 Years of Rebuilding Lives.
The Office also hosts crimevictims.gov, a website that provides useful information such as:
- a searchable directory of crime victim services
- hotlines and other toll-free numbers
- help for victims by topic or population (e.g., campus crime, drunk driving, missing and exploited children, victims with disabilities)
Another OVC website -- victimlaw.info -- enables researchers to identify federal, state, and tribal laws and constitutional provisions by topic, term, jurisdiction, or citation.
