What I liked

It was a great learning experience to work on the victim side of criminal justice. Helping those solve problems and represent them for justice was a fulfilling task.

What I wish was different

I wish there was more work to do to really understand the parameters of the legal and system and how it affects victims.

Advice

During the criminal justice process, most people understand the impacts that happen to the offender. However, learning the impacts to victims and their families help to better understand the complete process. I recommend seeing the justice system from this angle. It provides great insight.
