When someone becomes a victim of violence or crime, it can be one of the most devastating experiences of their life. The State of Pennsylvania has enacted a Victims' Bill of Rights to ensure victims are informed, protected, and supported as much as possible through the criminal and juvenile justice system, and personal recovery.
