to have safety information and advocacy with offender release information, sex offender registration, protection orders, emergency shelter, transitional housing, separate waiting areas at court, emergency cell phones, etc.

to have emotionally healing assistance such as crisis counseling, spiritual ministry, speak on victim impact panels, support groups, victim offender dialogue, 24-hour crisis line, employer and creditor intervention, accompaniment to court and interviews, advocacy for social services, etc.

to participate in the justice process by attending hearings, providing input, and receiving case information; and

to receive money from offender restitution, from Ohio’s Victim Compensation Program, and from CVS emergency assistance.

Services are free, and CVS is a United Way program of Greater Lima and Putnam County, Ohio.
