Vermont Center for Crime Victim Services announced that nominations are open for a new series of awards: "These awards recognize victim activists who have inspired us through their acts of courage and compassion, programs or individuals whose work has been particularly innovative and pioneering, and those who exemplify the long-term commitment that characterizes many of Vermont’s victim service providers, some of whom are themselves victims of crime."
The award winners will be honored at a special ceremony the week before National Crime Victims’ Rights Week, April 8 – 14, 2018. The ceremony is free and open to the public, and all are welcome.
For details on the award categories, eligibility, criteria and how to make nominations, visit: Vermont Center for Crime Victim Services.
