When someone is murdered, there is created a river of grief that will continue to flow until everyone who ever knew that person is dead. When a person is raped or beaten, the wounds never fully heal. It is only the victim’s courage which continues to fight submission to the effects of the violence. 


OUR MISSION is a simple one – to assure that the innocent crime victim has a face, a voice and a significant meaning in our system of social justice.

WE ARE the first and the oldest pro bono crime victims’ law center in the nation.

  • Pro bono legal assistance to crime victims, including direct representation in the criminal justice system;

  • Amicus Curiae advocacy in all federal and state courts throughout the nation in issues affecting victims’ rights;

  • Informational and technical assistance to attorneys, service providers and legislators on crime victims’ rights laws;

  • Training, lecturing and consultation on victims’ rights and remedies in the criminal and civil justice systems;

  • Direct representation of victims and assistance to attorneys in issues involving victim compensation.
