DA Vance has made justice reform a part of our mission, right alongside our founding mission of public safety.
Our strong partnerships with Manhattan communities help prevent crime and reduce involvement in the justice system.
Sexual violence affects all communities and workplaces. We ensure that survivors are not just heard, but given equal access to justice.
We’ve developed partnerships, technology, and expertise to become a national leader in cybercrime prevention and prosecution.
Since 2010, our proactive investigations have led to the removal of more than 1,700 guns from New York City streets.
Because Manhattan is a global financial capital, our Office is uniquely positioned to fight white-collar crime.
