Despite growing public anxiety over the rising crime rate, little is done for the victims. The long-term effects of crime on these forgotten people can be traumatic yet remain unrecognised or misunderstood.

In the face of a bewildering, sometimes horrifying, array of crime their philosophy remains constant: to turn victims into survivors.
