About SAVIN
SAVIN stands for Statewide Automated Victim Information & Notification. The South Dakota SAVIN program is a free, automated service that provides crime victims with vital information and notification 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. This service will allow you to obtain offender information and to register for notification of a change in offender status, such as offender release. All registrations through South Dakota SAVIN are kept completely confidential.
South Dakota Voters have passed Marsy's Law, Constitutional Amendment S, supporting victims' rights.
COURT TERMS AND PROCEDURES
South Dakota SAVIN notifies on various procedures and processes in the criminal justice system. An explanation of terms used in SAVIN notifications can be found HERE. A helpful flow chart of the criminal justice system can be found HERE.
