Founded in 1975, the National Organization for Victim Assistance (NOVA) is widely considered a leader in the attempt to secure rights for victims across the world and to provide related support services to mental health professionals, criminal justice agencies, and researchers. Starting at their homepage, users can learn about some of the latest situations they are responding to, including such natural disasters as hurricanes and tsunamis. After viewing the materials, users will definitely want to look at the Help For Victims area, as it contains well-thought out information on advocation and assistance for crime victims with disabilities and how to get help after victimization. Additionally, the publications area of the site includes a myriad of booklets and chapters available for download that deal with crisis intervention, supportive counseling, and the psychological trauma of crime.
