• What you can do:• Listen Carefully• Spend time with the victim• Offer your assistance, even if they haven’t asked for help• Give them time• Don’t take their anger or other feelings personally• Don’t tell them they are “Lucky it wasn’t worse” – traumatized people
are not consoled by such statements• Tell them that you are sorry such an event has occurred to them• Get their information and forward to our office so we can assist them
through the offender’s incarceration period
