Survivors Need Our Continuing Help
In no other crime is the survivor subject to so much scrutiny during an investigation or at trial; nor is the potential for rape survivors to be re-traumatised during these processes as high in any other crime.

Virtually all societies have had a concept of the crime of rape. Although what constituted this crime has varied by historical period and culture, until quite recently, the definitions tended to focus around an act of forced vaginal intercourse perpetrated through physical violence or imminent threat of death or severe bodily injury, by a man, on a woman or a girl, not his wife. These definitions differ significantly from the modern definitions of rape in Western countries today.
