Victims Portal Help Centre
Return to help centreWho can I name as my representative?
Victim representatives fall into two categories:
- Individual Representative — someone close to the victim, such as a family member or a friend.
- Agency Representative — an agent from a government, police or community victim services agency.
Note: Victims may name a representative, change their representative, or decide to begin receiving information directly themselves when registering for a Victims Portal account or at any time during the offender's sentence.
Once named, the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) and/or the Parole Board of Canada (PBC) will contact the named representative using the contact information you provided to confirm their participation and contact preferences. Once confirmed, CSC and/or PBC will contact your representative directly to provide offender information.
