National Crime Victims Rights Week Resources
"25 Years of Rebuilding Lives: Celebrating the Victims of Crime Act" -
appauds the landmark Victims of Crime Act (VOCA), which laid the
groundwork for the victim services field. I urge you to use the resources
available through this Guide as you develop your local activities. This
year it is especially important to celebrate VOCA's 25th SILVER
anniversary. Please keep me updated on the local activities planned by
your agency.
