Module 6
Considerations for Advocacy on Behalf of Victims from Vulnerable Populations

Introduction

While rates of sexual violence in the U.S. are staggering, some groups are even more vulnerable to victimization than others.  Additionally, some sexual assault victims face even greater hurdles to navigating the criminal justice system than others.  This module addresses concerns unique to sexual assault victims from particularly vulnerable populations:

  • Teen victims
  • LGBTQ victims
  • Immigrant victims
  • Native American victims
  • Elderly victims
  • Victims with disabilities
