The Victim Services Division is responsible for implementing programming for crime victims throughout Indiana. Services are defined as efforts that respond to the emotional and physical needs of crime victims, assist primary and secondary victims of crime to stabilize their lives after victimization, assist victims to understand and participate in the criminal justice system, and provide victims of crime with a measure of safety and security. Responsible for allocating and managing Federal dollars granted to Indiana from the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) and Office on Violence Against Women (OVW), the Victim Services Division's primary purpose is generating money to programs that provide direct services to crime victims through programs that offer a variety of services based on specific victim needs.
