Victim Services

Directory of Services

Victims of crime may find assistance from a number of agencies, depending on the type of crime, the location of the crime and/or victim, and the kind of assistance needed. In addition to the county-by-county listings that follow, you may find help from: county drug, alcohol and mental health boards (ADAMH boards), county sheriff offices, municipal police departments, college or university police departments, local mental health associations or legal aid societies. There are also many state and national organizations that victims may contact for information and resources. In addition, each Ohio correctional institution has identified a victim coordinator. Lists of statewide resources, victim service coordinators in correctional institutions, and county-by-county listings follow.

This resource contains the most recent information available from victim service providers. While we request corrections and updates from the providers listed below, some addresses and telephone numbers may be out of date. In addition, some information, such as street addresses, may not be provided for safety reasons.
