New Resource Available for Those Serving Older Black Crime Survivors


Are you looking for resources that will help you identify, reach, and serve older Black crime victims? Check out the recently released Increasing Access to Healing Services and Just Outcomes for Older African American Crime Survivors toolkit.

This toolkit was produced by the National Clearinghouse on Abuse in Later Life and the National Resource Center for Reaching Victims, with funding support from the Office for Victims of Crime. It offers victim service providers and criminal justice systems stakeholders information and practical strategies to help them identify, reach, and serve older Black victims of crime.

The toolkit includes a guide (with a glossary of terms and reflective questions) with five content modules that each feature a fillable workbook, a printable workbook, and accompanying videos.
