What type of notifications does LAVNS provide?

LAVNS, which stands for the Los Angeles Victim Notification System, specifically provides victim notifications regarding offenders' custody status. This system is designed to keep victims and their families informed about critical changes in the custody status of offenders, such as when an offender is released or transferred. The purpose of these notifications is to enhance the safety and awareness of victims, allowing them to stay informed about potential threats or developments that could impact their well-being.

The other options do not align with the primary function of LAVNS. For instance, while traffic violations and federal criminal case updates are important, they fall outside the scope of victim notifications that LAVNS specifically addresses. Similarly, court appointment notices are unrelated to the custody status of offenders, making them irrelevant in the context of what LAVNS offers. Thus, focusing on offender custody notifications encapsulates the core objective of LAVNS effectively.
