Annual Crime Victims' Rights Conference April 15-16, 2009 Hyatt Regency Hotel Wichita, Kansas Click here for the 2009 Workshop Application Form B.A.S.I.K. Training Every crime victim deserves to receive the best possible service and to be provided with information about the crime committed against him or her. No matter where crime takes place, qualified and trained people should be available to assist victims and their families. Every advocate should have a basic understanding of the laws, services and resources available to help victims of crime. Building Advocacy Skills, Information and Knowledge (B.A.S.I.K.) is an intensive five-day training course designed to provide a basic foundation for providing victim assistance in Kansas. This training is offered every year during the first week in June and funds are provided by the Federal Victims of Crime Act Victim Assistance Grant. All Subgrantees of the Federal Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) grant must send staff to this training. We want to thank the advisory committee for its expertise and support for this training and the subcommittee that helped in compiling materials and the agenda for the training. The advisory committee was made up of representatives from prosecutor based victim/witness programs, parents of murdered children & other survivors, police based victim advocates, child advocacy centers, department of corrections victim services, domestic violence and sexual assault program staff and state coalition, hospital based advocacy, MADD, state compensation program, and multi-cultural victim assistance advocates. Also, many thanks to the instructors who provide the training on the skills needed to help victims of crime in Kansas.
