The Rape Response and Crime Victim Center has been serving victims since January 1979. The purpose of this program is to aid crime victims by using selfhelp techniques taught to victims by trained advocates, and making our community a safer place. We must aid the public to stop crime. It is impossible to hold criminals accountable without victims cooperation in reporting and testifying about the crime. Few victims will report and prosecute rape without assistance because of stigmas regarding crimes of a sexual nature. Strong advocacy programs provide support needed to lessen the victimization.The Centers programs are organized into five basic areas:Crisis intervention services Individual assistance and support groups Aiding victims participation at all critical stage Prevention education Training and maintaining volunteers
