Victim Services Resources
The following resources are available for support purposes only; if you are in danger or going through an immediate crisis, call 9-1-1.
If you or someone close to you were injured or threatened with injury in a violent crime, the CalVCB may help pay certain crime-related expenses.
CalVCB can help pay expenses that result when a violent crime occurs, if there is no other source of reimbursement. Victims of crime who have been injured or have been threatened with injury may be eligible for help.
The VCRC operates the State of California’s confidential, toll-free 1-800-VICTIMS line and www.1800victims.org website. VCRC staff provide legal information on victim’ rights to victims, their families, victim service providers, and victim advocates. Callers receive information on such matters as victims compensation, victims’ rights in the criminal justice, restitution, civil suits, right to speak at sentencing and parole board hearings, as well as information on specific rights of victims of domestic violence, elder abuse, child abuse, and abuse against disabled. Each caller receives a tailored resource referral list of organizations who can provide direct assistance in the caller’s county.
