Online Platform Established by Japanese Law Enforcement for Aid to Crime Victims

Japan's latest initiative to aid crime victims, Gyutto Channel, has recently been launched. This user-friendly website offers a variety of resources and services to help victims and their supporters navigate the challenging aftermath of a crime.

One of the key features of Gyutto Channel is its searchable support system by crime type. Victims can find tailored assistance by searching according to the crime affecting them, such as murder or stalking, and by completing a checklist of concerns relevant to their situation.

The site also provides localized information on available support options, reflecting differences in services across regions. This means that users can find detailed lists of support services varying by municipality, making it easier for them to access the help they need.

In addition, Gyutto Channel offers contact information for private support organizations, enabling victims to connect with specialized help beyond governmental services. This feature ensures that victims have access to a wide range of resources to assist them in their recovery.

For those interested in learning more about victim psychology and trauma, the website offers 36 free educational videos. These videos draw on expert knowledge and input from Japan’s ministries of justice and education, providing valuable insights into the experiences of crime victims and their supporters.

The website is operated by The Jiji Press, Ltd., ensuring its credibility and reliability. It is important to note that the videos on the website are not repeated topics and are based on knowledge from experts.

Gyutto Channel emphasizes accessibility and clarity, as it was created to address difficulties users faced with previous support information on the National Police Agency homepage. The website is intended for victims, their supporters, and students, aiming to spread informed and practical knowledge about victim support more broadly.

The National Police Agency plans for police headquarters nationwide to promote and utilize Gyutto Channel, reinforcing its role as a comprehensive crime victim support hub. With its extensive resources and user-friendly design, Gyutto Channel is set to become an invaluable tool for crime victims and their supporters in Japan.
