According to Anne Seymour, the past decade and a half have seen tremendous growth in policies, programs, and protocols to enhance the provision of victim services in the post-sentencing phases of criminal cases.

Seymour sketches official recommendations to enhance the provision of victim services by adult correctional agencies.
