CT Office of Victim Services
Connecticut Judicial Branch
About
The state court system's office for crime victims and their families. Its helpline explains victims' rights, case notification and the court process, and refers callers to other services. Court-based advocates, including at Bridgeport Superior Court, help people apply for a civil protection order and go to court with them. Its Victim Compensation Program may help pay crime-related costs that insurance does not cover.
