Department of Homeland Security Opens Much-Needed Office for Victims of Crimes by Illegal Immigrants"All crime is terrible, but these victims are unique—and too often ignored. They are casualties of crimes that should never have taken place—because the people who victimized them often times should not have been in the country in the first place." -Homeland Security Secretary John F. Kelly
ICE built the VOICE office in response to the Executive Order entitled Enhancing Public Safety in the Interior of the United States, which directed DHS to create an office to support victims of crimes committed by criminal aliens. "All crime is terrible, but these victims are unique—and too often ignored," said Secretary Kelly. "They are casualties of crimes that should never have taken place—because the people who victimized them often times should not have been in the country in the first place. The key objectives of the VOICE office are: • Use a victim-centered approach to acknowledge and support victims and their families. The types of assistance people impacted by crimes committed by illegal aliens can expect include: Local contacts to help with unique victim requests: Access to social service professionals able to refer victims to resources and service providers: Assistance signing-up to receive automated custody status information: Additional criminal or immigration history may be available about an illegal alien to victims or their families: ICE is employing a measured approach to building the VOICE office—meaning that it intends to expand the services VOICE offers in the future. This approach allows the office to provide immediate services to victims, but will also allow the agency to collect metrics and information to determine additional resource needs and how the office can best serve victims and their families moving forward.
