Crime Victims' Rights: Working with Victims of Crime

Do you work with crime victims but are unfamiliar of what rights they have under the law? This video is meant to assist organizations that work with crime victims but do not necessarily provide crime victims' rights services. This information is meant to provide you with some basics so that you can be better situated to issue-spot and assist crime victims.
If you are in the District of Columbia and want to learn more about crime victims' rights under DC law, contact Network for Victim Recovery of DC to learn more! 202-742-1727 or www.nvrdc.org.
This information is not a replacement for legal advice. Every case is unique. A crime victims' rights attorney can help you get the most accurate information possible.
