victims and witnesses to testify are essential to the control of crime and
the improvement of justice; and

victims and witnesses and the nature of our criminal justice system will
help to achieve the goals of crime reduction, and the restoration of fair-
ness and effectiveness to the administration of criminal justice; and

an opportunity to recognize the rights and needs of victims and witnesses
and to promote greater public awareness of the assistance available;
