Victim Advocates

Victim advocates are professionals who support individuals who have experienced crime or trauma. They help victims navigate the aftermath of their experiences by providing emotional support, information about their rights, and assistance in accessing services like counseling, legal help, and healthcare. Advocates often work within law enforcement agencies, shelters, or community organizations, ensuring that victims feel heard and empowered throughout the recovery process. Their goal is to facilitate healing and provide resources to help victims regain control of their lives.
