Resolution; National Crime Victims' Rights Week; distribution.
This resolution declares April 6-12, 2025, as National Crime Victims' Rights Week in Oklahoma, with April 9 specifically designated as Victims’ Rights Day. It recognizes the annual observance and theme "Kinship, Connecting, and Healing" while affirming the state’s commitment to treating crime victims with fairness and respect throughout the justice process.

As a ceremonial measure, it does not create new laws or alter existing policies but serves to symbolically support victims’ rights advocacy.
