Reporting your sexual assault or sexual harassment can be very scary. There are a lot of advantages and disadvantages to reporting what happened.
It can be difficult to prosecute the offender without evidence but not impossible. If you had a rape exam after you were assaulted it increases the possibility of prosecution but even if you didn't have a rape exam and you didn't save the clothing you wore it doesn't mean you cannot still report what happened to you.
Remember you do have rights. You also have the right not to report it if you don't want to. Tri-County Council will stand behind your decision to report or not to report your sexual assault or sexual harassment. Remember you are not alone.
You can still access our services if you haven't reported the crime!
