Postsecondary Education: Integrating Crime Victims'' Issues into University and College Curricula

This project will develop innovative, multidisciplinary education models (i.e., classroom, online, clinical) addressing victimization issues and responses to crime victims that can be integrated into university or college curricula and faculty development. This initiative will assist in providing comprehensive and quality education and training to future victim service providers and allied professionals that will ultimately improve the delivery of services and enforcement of rights for crime victims. This cooperative agreement supports phase 1 of this project and will specifically support, the formation of a planning committee to develop program strategy components, including curriculum review and development of new or modification of existing curricula, subrecipient solicitation design, subrecipient pilot selection, and evaluation design and a feedback model.
