Supporting the designation of April 24 through April 30, 2022, as "National Crime Victims' Rights Week".
HRES 1055 is a symbolic resolution designating April 24-30, 2022, as "National Crime Victims' Rights Week" to honor victims of crime and highlight their needs. It specifically recognizes the work of over 12,000 victim service organizations nationwide and promotes the 2022 theme "Rights, access, equity for all victims." The resolution encourages the public to support crime survivors’ rights daily, not just during the designated week, and acknowledges efforts to address barriers like race, disability, or geography in accessing support. As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new laws or funding but aims to raise awareness and support for victim services.
