In 2011, the SC Victim Assistance Network (SCVAN) expanded our
services to include the SC Identity Theft Network, a grant
supported by the National
Identity Theft Victim Assistance Network Project,
offering specific and expert assistance in working with identity
theft victims. The
Network’s focus also includes education and training, public
awareness, and a review of policies and procedures related to
identity theft. A
Statewide Network was formed involving members from the criminal
justice communities, federal and state agencies, and public and
private businesses, to improve the capacity of our state to
combat the crime and fully address the needs of identity theft
victims in South Carolina. In
April 2012, the Network came together and developed a strategic
plan to identify common goals to enable us all to crack down on
identity theft and help those who have been victimized.
