Registration for Notification Program
Notifications are primarily provided through an automated notification system. More information is available on the Automated Notifications tab. Registration in the program is voluntary; victims are not automatically registered in the program. A notification request form can be downloaded from this site and mailed, faxed, or e-mailed to the Victim Services Unit. Victims registered to be notified of all release information can expect to receive written notification prior to the offender’s release.
The Victim Services Unit uses the automated notification system to provide the following notifications:
- The offender release from custody.
- Escape and/or recapture of offender.
- Change of status while in custody.
- Approval of the offender to participate in residential confinement programs.
- Change in offender sentence structure.
- Return to NDOC custody.
- Real time status updates.
Victims are encouraged to submit a Victim Notification Request to ensure the NDOC and Nevada Board of Parole Commissioners address notifications to which only the legal victims are entitled. Registration is subject to verification with the Office of the District Attorney, Department of Public Safety, and other state and local law enforcement agencies.
