Event Dates
Location
Virtual
In observation of National Crime Victims' Rights Week, NOVA is offering a series of three brown bag webinars.

Victims are an essential part of criminal proceedings. To ensure that they can participate fully in the criminal justice process, every jurisdiction in the country gives victims rights in criminal cases. Katharine Manning, former senior attorney advisor on victim rights at the U.S. Department of Justice, discusses what rights victims have, how rights are enforced, and to whom they apply, as well as steps we can take to ensure victims receive their rights�and their voice-in court proceedings.
