Your Financial Partnership is Strategic as Crisis Response Ministry:
Most resources in the criminal justice system are allocated to provide public safety, investigate criminal activity and punish the criminal. Primary and secondary victims are often left alone, isolated and without the physical and emotional support needed to mitigate through the long-lasting effects of devastating and traumatic events. This can result in feelings of helplessness and isolation. Victims can become overwhelmed and begin to avoid dealing with the investigation and prosecution phases of the criminal justice system.
