What does HSI's Victim Assistance Program aim to provide?

The HSI's Victim Assistance Program is designed to provide support and resources to victims of crime. This program recognizes the diverse needs of victims, offering services that may include emotional support, crisis intervention, and access to various resources that can help individuals navigate the aftermath of a crime. By focusing on holistic support, the program aims to empower victims and assist them in their recovery process.

This approach is built on the understanding that victims require different forms of help, ranging from counseling services to referrals for housing or financial assistance. Therefore, the program is not limited to just one type of support but encompasses a broad range of resources tailored to meet the varying needs of victims.

In contrast, while legal representation, job placement, and emergency housing are important areas of assistance, they do not encompass the full scope of support that the HSI Victim Assistance Program aims to provide. The program’s comprehensive focus on overall victim support is what sets it apart as an essential resource for those affected by crime.
