About the DNA Resource Center
The National Center for Victims of Crime is committed to raising awareness about the importance of forensic DNA as a tool to help solve and prevent crime and bring justice to victims.
Our DNA Resource Center is a source for training, technical assistance, and information about the use of DNA in the criminal justice system. It aims to help victim service and criminal justice professionals understand forensic DNA, DNA databases, and the roles of sexual assault nurse examiners helping survivors of DNA exonerations, and how DNA can be used in missing persons cases. The goal of this project is to ensure victim service and allied professionals have accurate and up-to-date information so that they are able to provide informed and sensitive guidance to victims whose cases involve DNA evidence.
