The section on skills development focuses on work with criminal justice agencies, stress management for caregivers, effective public speaking and group facilitation, cross-cultural service delivery, and victim services as a profession. The section on program development includes a discussion of the expansion of the reach of victim services to schools, hospitals, and corrections and serving victims of bias crimes.
