Being a Victim of Crime

Crime will directly or indirectly affect everyone at some point in their lives. Crime happens on a daily basis. Some crimes involve violence some do not. Being a victim of crime can cause people to react in many different ways. Reactions can vary but very often people who have suffered or witnessed a crime feel angry, upset, scared and lost, sometimes not knowing where to turn.

Although most victims don't suffer long-term harm, both adults and children can be seriously affected.
