Crime Victims Council

Wishing everyone a happy Friday and even happier Pride Month!!

🏳️‍🌈 Did you know June is Pride Month? This month we celebrate the strength, resilience, and courage of LGBTQ+ survivors and reaffirm our promise to stand beside them on their journey toward healing.

At CVC, we recognize that LGBTQIA+ individuals often face unique challenges and barriers when seeking help. We are committed to creating a safe and inclusive space where all survivors can access advocacy, counseling, and support without fear of judgement.

You are seen. You are valued. You belong here. 🏳️‍🌈 💜

From lighting your lantern to picking flowers, don’t forget how much words mean and to be kind to yourself. We love seeing our staff’s creativity! This past month staff broke into teams to create Positive Self Talk posters and each group took a slightly different approach.

Join our dedicated team and be part of the mission to create a safer, more inclusive society for our young people. Your work as a Bilingual Prevention Specialist will make a meaningful impact in the lives of youth and contribute to a future free from violence. Apply today on Indeed!

Today we wear denim with purpose. 💙

Denim Day is a reminder that we believe survivors. Always. The phrase behind us says it simply: We Believe You—because support, validation, and compassion matter.

To everyone who showed up in denim today, thank you for standing in solidarity and helping shift the culture toward one that listens, believes, and empowers.

Together, we continue to raise awareness and support survivors—today and every day.

We are grateful to partner with Clear Path Wellness Lehigh Valley to provide space for their Break the Silence event again this year.

Next Wednesday 4/29 at 6pm in the lower level of our building!

CVC Staff spent the morning painting rocks for our Victims’ Rights Vigil next week and chalking our sidewalks for Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM).

Go outside, take a deep breath, let your creativity flow, do something for you today!

Our Counseling Department is excited to share they will be hosting two support groups starting in June! Dates and times will be determined closer to the start. If you are interested in either the Teen or Caregiver Support Group please reach out to Kelsey at [email protected]
