Victimization can create a myriad of civil legal problems and intensify preexisting challenges faced by victims and their families. Without legal representation, these complex legal issues can be overwhelming for victims of crime to navigate alone.

The Equal Justice Works Crime Victims Advocacy Program (CVAP) is mobilizing a cohort of 21 attorney Fellows to increase access to legal aid for survivors of crime, especially in underserved Black, Indigenous and people of color (BIPOC) communities across the United States. Join us to learn more about this exciting program and learn how to apply!
