Resources for Victims of Violent Crimes
Avoiding violent crime is everybody's personal business, but sometimes you need help. The government maintains a variety of hotlines and toll-free assistance programs on Victim's Rights Services as well as criminal and juvenile justice resources. FaceFile strongly encourages anyone who has been victimized in any manner to seek immediate help from the proper authorities. For your convenience, we have assembled contact information for a number of these organizations.
