There are several useful websites dealing with issues relating to victims of crime. Probably the most informative is this Dutch-hosted International Victimology website. This provides access to a vast library of material and links to all the relevant academic journals.

http://www.vaonline.org
This is an American site with worldwide links to service providers; this site also hosts a number of specialist
services including Victimology Research.

http://www.victimsupport.org
The UK agency Victim Support has a helpful site, which focuses on providing leaflets and other information to victims, but also has press releases, policy documents, research reports, and links to other organisations.

http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/crime-victims/
This UK government website provides basic information to victims, with links to research and other organisations. It is part of a vast and complex website with a search facility which is not very user-friendly, but it is good for what it does.

The online Victim Walkthrough also has some key information about victims in the criminal justice process and is a useful example of the output of policy making in this area.
