When there has been an arrest, Family Violence Victim Advocates educate victims about criminal court and advocate for them within the system. They do not offer legal advice. With the victim’s permission, an advocate can provide crucial information to court officials.  Advocates can:

  • Advocate on the victims behalf
  • Help victims understand protective orders
  • Understand law enforcement and criminal court procedures
  • Provide moral support and community referrals
