The trauma of violent crime is devastating to individuals, families, friends, and neighbors. If you, or someone close to you, have experienced the trauma of violent crime, there are many resources available to help on your journey including timely literature, guidance on the Criminal Justice System, local support groups, and assistance in locating resources in your area.

You need not be alone in your search for understanding, answers and help. Accessing such information will make your journey easier... difficult, but easier. Law enforcement, prosecutor's office, victim witness units as well as local libraries and hospices are common resources. These agencies can be a valuable asset.

Our pages and links include important resources such as literature on homicide, grief, bereavement, post traumatic stress syndrome--PTSD, and many related topics. If you like what you have read, or have any suggestions on ways to improve these pages please email us at the addresses provided.

With remembrance and respect, we present our Memorial Page, dedicated to the cherished loved ones who were so violently taken from their lives and ours. Links to various web sites provide much more information about these victims and the courage demonstrated by loved ones acknowledging their ongoing pain. In feeling the devastation of murder, may we gain a better understanding and compassionately support those who already know its unending impact.
