Victims And Crime Reporting
\nPart 1
\nImagine you are a consultant for the Department of Justice (DOJ). You have been asked to assess measures of crime and victimization. You will then present your findings to the Department.
\nResearch the Internet to find three scholarly resources that focus on measuring crime statistics.
\nReview these crime databases:
\n\u2022\tUniform Crime Reporting (UCR)
\n\u2022\tNational Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS)
\n\u2022\tNational Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS)
\n\u2022\tUnited Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC)
\ncreate a 15 slide (not including title and reference slides) PowerPoint presentation that includes audio or utilizes footnotes and that:
\n\u2022\tProvides an overview of each of the crime databases listed above;
\n\u2022\tCompares each system\/database;
\n\u2022\tDescribes the advantages and disadvantages of each database; and
\n\u2022\tDiscusses whether combining databases would improve the understanding of victimization and better inform victimization reduction strategies.
\nPart 2
\nNext, imagine you have been hired by the National Center for Victims of Crime (NCVC) to prepare an Executive Summary on the many impacts of crime victimization. The Executive Summary will be distributed to every state\u2019s office of victim services to inform their planning for victim\u2019s services. Next, let’s say the National Center for Victims of Crime (NCVC) has hired you to write an Executive Summary about the many effects of being a crime victim. The Executive Summary will be sent to the office of victim services in every state to help them plan services for victims.
\nResearch the Internet to find resources that focus on crime and victimization, specifically statistics of major crimes. Visit the National Center for Victims of Crime (NCVC) website for more information.
\nUsing the Walden Writing Center \u201cBasics of Executive Summaries\u201d as a guide, write a
\n5 page Executive Summary in which you:
\n\u2022\tProvide an overview of crime and victimization in the United States and include current statistics of at least three major crimes (UCR Part I Crimes).
\n\u2022\tIdentify and describe three direct impacts of crime on victims and their families. Discuss whether these are short or long-term impacts.
\n\u2022\tExplain which crimes have higher reporting rates and which crimes have lower reporting rates.
\n\u2022\tIdentify methods for improving rates of reporting for underreported crimes.
\n\u2022\tDiscuss how using statistics and improving reporting rates can lead to social change.
\nSupport your Executive Summary with at least three scholarly resources (textbooks, peer-reviewed journals, and government publications).

\nResearch and discuss a case of child abuse or neglect, either an act of commission or omission. In your discussion, state whether having a standard definition of child abuse and\/or neglect would be beneficial and if so why?

All questions are worth 20 points:<\/p>\n
What do you think did more to help improve the lives of children: the orphan trains or the sensational case of Mary Ellen Wilson?
\nHow can one tell the difference between maltreatment and accidental injury? What are the warning signs in children or the elderly who may be maltreated, abused, and\/or neglected?
\nVisit the website: http:\/\/www.llsdc.org\/state-legislation or https:\/\/www.justice.gov\/elderjustice\/elder-justice-statutes-0 and find a bill or law in your state that addresses child maltreatment or elderly abuse. What is one bill or law that you found regarding child abuse or elderly abuse and what is its status? How might this bill or law affect the children or elderly in your state?
\nIs there an absolute definition of abuse and neglect? If not, should there be, why or why not? Please provide examples of abuse and neglect in your answer.
\nIn your opinion, is one form off abuse or neglect worse than another? Be able to support your answer with information from your readings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
