Course Description

Victim advocacy is committed to providing comprehensive services and support that address

the physical, emotional, and financial needs of individuals and communities that result from

victimization. In addition to providing support to victims immediately after an event,

advocates assess the need for follow-up with victims on a continuous basis. A victim advocate

has the unique ability of being able to devote attention to the various needs of the victim while

at the same time acting as a liaison with criminal justice system officials to keep the victim and

their support network informed of the progress of the criminal case. Law enforcement

agencies, shelters, and court services are some of the system components that utilize victim

advocates. NOTE: Course descriptions are short, concise summaries that typically do not exceed 75 words. DO: Address the
