About the Forum
The HELP for Victim Service Providers message board is hosted by
the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC), which provides leadership
and funding on behalf of crime victims. OVC developed this resource
as a tool for victim service providers and allied professionals to
share ideas, suggestions, and recommendations concerning promising
practices, best practices, and victim issues.
