2005 National Crime Victims Right's Week

I wasn't aware that there was a week for this; but, I am glad that there is. I was surfing the web (as per usual :) ) and happen upon the Office for Victims of Crime website. Eventually, that lead me to the 2005 NCVR Week Resouce Guide. In this Guide, it not only delineates the guidelines for this year's National Crime Victims Right's Week, it also provides handouts, posters, flyers and other materials needed to assist in putting together a good event, as well as a background and history of the development, including details of Ronald Reagan's initial proclomation of this dedicated week 25 years ago.

In the meantime, what does this mean to my career? I think I still have a soft heart towards crime victims in general and would love the opportunity to work with more crime victims in the future. I am glad that events like this do take place because it certainly acknowledges those who aid in helping crime victims directly and indirectly. There are many people behind the scens who often do not get recognized for their accomplishments -- especially true with the aid to crime victims. I would love to be a part of putting on this event to recognize those such people.
