About this resource

This service provides legal information aimed at assisting crime victims by connecting them with advocates who can help them process trauma, understand their rights, and obtain restraining orders. It also aids individuals in reporting crimes to law enforcement or investigators, offers case information and updates to affected individuals, and provides guidance on addressing past convictions or court-related fines. Additionally, it explains the workings of the criminal justice system, supports defendants in connecting with their defense attorneys or parole/probation officers, provides information on warrant lifts, and shares upcoming court dates. Furthermore, it helps refer individuals to other community services and organizations.
