NCVLI Needs Your Support

NCVLI is a nonprofit organization. To remain strong and independent, we rely on your support. As you plan your charitable donations, we hope that you will consider an investment in justice for crime victims through a gift to NCVLI. You may give directly to NCVLI here:

To change our criminal justice system and secure justice for crime victims requires three things: Advocacy by lawyers fighting for the rights of individual victims and amicus curiae (“friend of the court”) fighting for the voices of all victims. Training & Education on rights enforcement because lawyers representing victims can’t just be any lawyer – they need to be lawyers who are well-trained on victims’ rights and who have access to expert technical assistance, and every criminal justice professional must understand victims’ rights enforcement. Public Policy advances to ensure that no matter where in the country you are victimized you have rights and those rights are enforceable in court.
