OVC launched the Vision 21: Transforming Victim Services Web site to keep the crime victims field informed about the initiative’s mission, objectives, and contributors. Bookmark this Web site and visit periodically for updated information on progress related to the initiative!
OVC invites you to share your vision about the role of the crime victims field in the country’s response to crime and delinquency in the United States! Review the objectives for each contributing project and submit your comments and recommendations.
On March 29, 2011, the Vision 21 project directors participated in an OVC Web Forum Guest Host discussion on Transforming Victim Services in the 21st Century. If you missed the discussion, you can view the transcript now.
Vision 21 presents a rare opportunity for victims of crime, service providers, and allied professionals to make a significant contribution to improving the field. Download the Vision 21 fact sheet and share it with your colleagues. OVC needs your input.
Since January 2011, four forums have been held around the country, bringing hundreds of stakeholders from traditional and nontraditional arenas together to make recommendations for effectively transforming the field. Participant lists from each forum are now available to download!
