 The Minnesota Alliance on Crime seeks to provide a Unified Voice for victims of crime and their advocates.

Our Values:

  • JUSTICE - for those harmed by crime. 
  • COLLABORATION - with those who maintain similar missions, visions and goals.

 Our MISSION is to provide a statewide alliance for crime victim programs while promoting the advancement of services in Minnesota through education, resources, and legislation.

Our VISION is to put victims' rights at the forefront of the criminal justice system by changing Minnesota's response to crime.
