Join the Lincoln County Victim/Witness Program for a powerful and meaningful evening to observe National Crime Victims' Rights Week with a Candlelight Vigil focused on this year’s theme: KINSHIP. This is a call to action to recognize that the shared humanity of all individuals should lie at the heart of supporting survivors and victims of crime. KINSHIP is more than just a word; it’s a state of being, a reminder that we are not alone in our struggles. It drives essential connections that create opportunities for healing, empowerment, and advocacy. 

Come together to pledge our collective commitment to ensuring that survivors and victims of all crimes in Lincoln County feel seen, heard, and supported. Local community organizations, service providers, and advocates will unite to show their support and to emphasize that victim advocacy begins with KINSHIP. Together, we can work to enhance access to services, rights, and healing for those who need it most. Come light a candle in honor of victims and survivors, and stand in solidarity with our community. Your presence will make a difference. Let’s shine a light on hope, healing, and the power of kinship.
