Victims Services

Office of Victim & Survivor Rights & Services

Reorganization of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation on July 1, 2005, presented a unique opportunity to rededicate state corrections to protecting the rights of victims, survivors, and witnesses.  The department’s efforts will focus on achieving the following objectives:

  • Improving Offender Accountability
  • Improving Direct Services
  • Increasing Outreach and Collaboration
