January is National Stalking Awareness Month

In response to the growing need for prevention and intervention, the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency for the District of Columbia launched the Community Supervision Services’ Victim Services Program (VSP) in April 2001.

This program serves residents within the District of Columbia who have been victims of Domestic Violence, Sexual Offenses, Traffic/ Alcohol-related Crimes, or Property Crimes. VSP is committed to responding to victims of crime with compassion, understanding, and respect.

VSP works in conjunction with Community Supervision Officers (CSOs) and other victim service agencies with whom partnerships have been formed, identifies victims of crime, provides education on victim rights, and delivers orientation and technical assistance to victims and the community.
