  • Accompaniment to proceedings
  • Notification of victim’s rights
  • Sending out victim impact statements and victim claim forms
  • Crisis intervention counseling
  • Assistance with crime victim compensation
  • System-based advocacy for crime victims

The two staff members have an excellent working relationship with both the Juvenile Probation Department and the Erie County District Attorney’s Office to assist in providing the best possible service for crime victims.
