Why join our support group?
No one wants to become the victim of a crime, but it can happen to any of us when we least expect it. Dealing with the criminal justice system can be challenging enough, but the crime itself can leave a lasting impact--physically, emotionally, psychologically, and even financially. The effects of a crime can disrupt your life and impact your relationships with family and friends, interfere with your ability to work and live, and set you back on your path toward rebuilding your life.
You're not alone.
Having a support system is vital. Sometimes, having family and friends to turn to is enough. Sometimes, it takes a village--a group of individuals who have been through the same struggles--to help you learn to stand on your own again.
