Increasing Access to Healing Services and Just Outcomes for Older African American Victims of Crime and Abuse

This interactive virtual workshop will introduce participants to a critical resource for the crime victims, elder abuse, and abuse in later life field, the Increasing Access to Healing Services and Just Outcomes for Older African American Crime Survivors toolkit. This resource centers the voices and lived experiences of older Black victims seeking supports and services and it names the various structural oppressions within society and the victim assistance field which limit the ability of older African American victims to access critical supports and services.
