Crime Survivors Speak

A National Survey of Victims’ Views on Safety and Justice

Despite billions spent on public safety in the United States, there is a gap between the safety investments victims of violence prefer and what government leaders prioritize. Crime Survivors Speak 2024 is the largest commissioned survey of violent crime victims in the nation. The results expose that gap and offer a safer path forward.

Aligning public policy with the needs and preferences of violent crime victims would cause a breakthrough in American crime policy and bring safety and healing to millions. It’s a breakthrough that’s long overdue.
