National Victims of Crime Awareness Week

April 26 to May 2, 2009

Welcome to the National Victims of Crime Awareness Week website.

National Victims of Crime Awareness Week – being recognized across the country from April 26 to May 2, 2009 – is an opportunity to raise awareness about victim issues and about the programs, services and laws in place to help victims of crime and their families.

Communities can observe the week by hosting activities to raise awareness and to promote services available locally for victims of crime and their families.

Information on activities for National Victims of Crime Awareness Week will be available here shortly.  In the meantime, scroll through the website for a summary of activities that took place in 2008 and don’t forget to register for regular updates by e-mailing us at victimsweek-semainedesvictimes@justice.gc.ca.
