Mount Clemens, Michigan - The Crime Victim Rights Unit of the Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office is thrilled to announce the first ever crime survivor event: "Options, Services, and Hope for Crime Survivors.” The Crime Victim Rights Unit was awarded a federal grant offered by the National Association of VOCA Assistance Administrators (NAVAA) to fund this event.  The event is free to the public and aims to provide essential support and resources to survivors and their families within the community.  Individuals can expect to receive information explaining the criminal justice system and showcasing available support services. Please join us on Friday, April 26, 2024, from 11am to 2pm at the Velocity Center, 6633 18 Mile Road, Sterling Heights, MI 48314.

This event serves as a beacon of hope for those impacted by crime.  Valuable insights will be offered into navigating the legal process as well as access to vital resources which include but are not limited to: restitution, finding support on the path to healing, and other avenues needed to aid in overcoming the impact of being a victim of a crime.

"It’s not just about pursuing justice; it's about standing with survivors every step of the way. Our inaugural Crime Survivor event, 'Options, Services, and Hope for Crime Survivors,' underscores our commitment to providing unwavering support and resources to those affected by crime. Together, we empower survivors and their families, shedding light on their rights, navigating the legal system, and fostering hope for a brighter future," said Macomb County Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido.

Highlights include informative sessions led by representatives from the Macomb County Prosecutor's Office, including a Crime Victim Advocate and an Assistant Prosecuting Attorney. Additionally, community members such as Turning Point and CareHouse will offer insights into navigating the aftermath of crime. Representatives from the Macomb County Sheriff's Office and members of the Macomb County Judiciary will also provide support and guidance.

Discussions will cover topics including victim’s rights, available support services, and coping strategies. Attendees will engage with professionals, ask questions, and network with fellow survivors. Lunch will be provided, fostering a supportive environment so survivors can connect with each other.
