Centre d’aide aux victimes d’actes criminels de la Côte-Nord (CAVAC)

Organisation profile

CAVACs offer front-line services to all victims of crime and their immediate family and to witnesses to a crime. The centres provide assistance regardless of whether the perpetrator of the crime has been identified, apprehended, prosecuted or convicted.

Services

● CAVACs offer information on the rights crime victims have and the remedies available to them, which encompasses the main stages of the judicial process, the crime victims compensation program, INFOVAC-Plus and any financial assistance measures to which victims may be entitled.  CAVACs assist crime victims in filling out required forms and to enable them to comply with all the formalities associated with their situation.  CAVACs accompany crime victims through their dealings with medical and community resources, and provide sustained support throughout the judicial process as the case proceeds.
