Victim Assistance Program is a nonprofit organization based in Akron, Ohio, with a long-standing mission to empower communities to restore lives affected by crisis, violence, and tragedy. The organization provides 24-hour crisis intervention, advocacy, and education to crime and trauma victims, as well as to professionals who serve this population, and it serves more than 5,000 individuals annually through these free services. Founded in the 1970s, the program emerged from early efforts to address a lack of victim support and has since developed a legacy of collaborating with police, prosecutors, and the courts to guide individuals through the aftermath of crime and trauma. The entity operates within the nonprofit sector and emphasizes accessible support, crisis response, and education as core offerings for both victims and professionals in the field. In recent years, it has engaged in partnerships and initiatives within the region, including collaborations with local organizations and participation in community events to expand its reach.
