Just Ask: How Advocates, Law Enforcement, and Attorneys can better meet the needs of crime victims with disabilities by asking about and providing accommodations

People with disabilities and Deaf people are victims of violent crime at three times the rate of people without disabilities. They also experience some of the greatest obstacles to accessing justice and healing services. These barriers make it difficult, if not impossible, to fully participate in the legal system or heal from the trauma they’ve experienced. An important way to increase access to justice, safety, and healing opportunities is by providing people with accommodations.
