Placement of law enforcement-based victim services within the agency – on the organizational chart and in physical workspaces – has a direct impact on effective implementation, incorporation, and sustainability.

Selection of the direct supervisor is a key component of this placement that has a cascading effect on services to victims and co-victims, operational decisions, and planning for victim services unit (VSU) expansion.

Information from this webinar can help participants review the following considerations:

  • selection of VSU direct supervisor,
  • foundational understanding of VSU,
  • equitable access to supervision, and
  • strategic planning for VSU.
