- Step-by-step explanations about the criminal court process and what to expect in the months ahead
- Notification about case developments
- Emotional support through the court process, including accompaniment to meetings and court proceedings
- Assistance with restitution during prosecution for property loss or damage resulting from crime
- Referrals to other community services such as local shelters, the domestic abuse court advocate, group or personal counseling providers and area support groups
- Assistance in seeking reimbursement through the Arkansas Crime Victims Reparations Board for various out-of-pocket expenses resulting from the crime
