Sexual Battery Victims Rights and Services
Anyone who has been the victim of a sexual crime needs compassion, sensitivity, and caring. Dealing with the feelings and issues resulting from the crime can be overwhelming and confusing. Services including hotline, crisis intervention and advocacy are available to you free of charge from your local certified rape crisis center. An advocate from a rape crisis center can:
- help you understand in greater detail many of the issues described in this brochure.
- assure you that your reactions are a normal part of the response to the crime.
- listen to your feelings and concerns.
- help you understand and weigh your options.
- be with you at appointments if you desire.
- contact others on your behalf with your permission.
Rape crisis centers are legally and ethically required to protect your confidentiality (Florida Statute §90.5035). Unless you specifically ask them in writing with your signature to release information about you, they will not.
