Published purpose

The project will implement a victims navigator approach to fill the gap in dealing with victims, to meet with victims of crime as a primary contact person to assist them throughout the criminal court process, provide information and resources to victims in regard to trauma and ways to prevent re-victimization. The navigator will help refer victims to supports within community, accompany victims to meet with police, justice appointments, court interviews etc. The navigator will ensure victims have supports and access to service options, and be assisted in a culturally sensitive manner. The navigator will develop contact base and collaborate with support services to help victims .
