OVC FY 2018 Service, Support & Justice: A Strategy to Enhance Law Enforcement Response to Victims

The Enhancing Law Enforcement Response to Victims (ELERV) initiative follows a multifaceted approach involving a demonstration project, intensive technical assistance to support the participating sites, and an evaluation. The International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) will continue to provide intensive technical assistance to the three law enforcement agencies participating in the demonstration project as they implement the ELERV strategy. The implementation of ELERV will be evaluated by local research partners to determine its effectiveness in creating a culture of transformation within the selected law enforcement communities in their response to victims.
