Office of the Children's Lawyer
The Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) in Ontario provides critical advice to the Attorney General regarding the diverse needs of victims of crime, ensuring the principles established in Ontario's Victims Bill of Rights are respected. It focuses on developing standards for victim services, utilizing the Victims Justice Fund to support programming, and engaging in research and education about victimization and preventive measures.
With a governance structure that includes appointed members with specialized expertise, the OVC aims to enhance the treatment of victims within the criminal justice system. While it does not provide direct services or legal advice, it plays a vital role in advising on policies that impact victims and facilitating a voice for their needs in the justice process.
