The Department of Corrections (DOC) Victim Services Program's vision for victims and survivors of crime is that their voices are heard, valued, and included in a collective effort to hold incarcerated and formerly incarcerated person(s) accountable, prevent future harm, and enhance community safety.
The Victim Services Program (VSP) develops collaborative partnerships with victims, victim advocates, criminal justice agencies, community–based organizations and other community members to promote victim and community safety. VSP advocates for policies that give victims an influential voice and that hold incarcerated and formerly incarcerated person(s) accountable for their acts.
Please take the Victim Services survey to let us know how we're doing. We want to ensure we are providing the appropriate care to our customers.
Working together for safer communities
The Washington State Department of Corrections acknowledges that its facilities, offices and operations are on the ancestral lands and customary territories of Indigenous Peoples, Tribes and Nations. Corrections is thankful to the Tribes for caring for these lands since time immemorial and honors its ongoing connection to these communities past, present and future. We welcome the opportunity to collaborate with the Indigenous populations and communities, and strive to work with our Tribal partners to improve the lives of Indigenous People and non-Indigenous neighbors throughout the state.
