Hazing Resources

CCSOC has made a dramatic and far reaching impact on college campus crime reporting, campus crime victim rights and prevention initiatives to reduce campus crime over the past twenty-one years.  Today, it remains the first and only nonprofit organization dedicated to the prevention of criminal violence at colleges and universities nationwide through educational, awareness, and policy initiatives.
 

StopHazing.org  
The StopHazing.org website grew out of a group of concerned students, educators and parents called the MJTF (multi-jurisdictional task force.) This organization first formed in 1993 at the University of New Hampshire in order to pass a state anti-hazing law. Since the successful passage of NH's first anti-hazing law in 1993, the group has expanded to other states and hopes to support anti-hazing efforts across the nation.

The National Crime Victim Bar Association 
Almost 26 million Americans are victimized by crime each year.  Many victims suffer from more than the trauma of the original crime.  All too often, they are also left with expenses for medical procedures, physical rehabilitation, counseling, lost wages, and lost earning capacities.  The National Crime Victim Bar Association (NCVBA), an affiliate of the National Center for Victim of Crime, helps victims find attorneys and allied professionals who can assist in obtaining the resources necessary for physical and emotional healing.  In addition, the NCVBA provides technical assistance to attorneys representing crime victims in the civil justice process.
