Founded in 2002, Witness Justice is a national, grassroots, non-denominational 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to empower and assist victims of violence and their loved ones in healing from trauma and in navigating the criminal justice process. Each month, Witness Justice receives more than 200,000 hits to www.witnessjustice.org, and approximately 300 individuals turn to us for direct assistance, making us one of the most sought-after victim services in the country. More than one in three adults and nearly 70 percent of adolescents are estimated to fall victim to violent crime in the United States. Since only about half, at most, of all violent victimizations are ever reported to the police, and because survivors must report crimes to become eligible for state-administered victim compensation and other services, an alarming number of survivors go without the help and support they need. Even when survivors can access services, they are faced with the fact that the nature and scope of services can vary drastically from one community to another, with sufficiently “trauma-informed” services being rare even in the best scenario. Witness Justice’s violence treatment/prevention and advocacy work have garnered national coverage by reputable venues including National Public Radio, Time, ABC News, Associated Press, and The Chronicle of Philanthropy. Also, our trauma education and awareness efforts have been publicly endorsed by a wide range of prominent leaders in the fields of victim assistance, domestic violence, mental health, law enforcement, child abuse/neglect, criminal justice, elder abuse, crisis response, education, and more. www.witnessjustice.org Shop MonarchPearls | | Uniform strand of white pearls.
