The Victim Advocacy Program, part of the Ethiopian Community Development Council in Arlington, VA, is dedicated to supporting victims of domestic violence, crime, and human trafficking. With funding from the Victims of Crime Act, we offer culturally and linguistically tailored advocacy services designed to empower individuals to reclaim their safety and security. Our comprehensive approach includes one-on-one emotional and psychological support, guidance through the intricacies of the criminal justice system, crisis intervention, and essential referrals to a network of victim services. We are here to assist with filing for victim compensation or protective orders, provide mental health resources, and connect individuals with shelter and housing options, ensuring that every victim receives the support they need during their time of crisis.
