This year’s theme—Extending the Vision: Reaching Every Victim—is a call to action to revisit, revive, and expand the vision of the crime victims’ movement to reach all victims, including victims of new and emerging crimes resulting from changes in technology, globalization, and the demographics of our society. This commemorative week has been set aside since 1981 to honor crime victims and the first responders, advocates, counselors, and others who assist them in their time of need, and the law enforcement personnel who work to bring offenders to justice.
