Crime victims: get support during court hearings
You can get support during court hearings from our Victim Advocates. Our Victim Advocates serve as your connection to prosecutors, law enforcement and other criminal justice agencies, and help to ensure that you have a voice in the criminal justice process. Your Victim Advocate will link you with local resources, provide you with case updates, and support you during court hearings and testimony.
The Victim Services Unit helps victims from all walks of life and experiences, regardless of age, background and/or immigration status. Walk-ins are welcome and all services are free. Your Victim Advocate can assist you even if a suspect is not identified or if criminal charges have not been filed.
To connect with a Victim Advocate, call (408) 295-2656, email [email protected], or visit our office at 70 W. Hedding St., West Wing, San Jose, CA 95110.
