SEE IT AND STOP IT - Help for abusers and their victims

Children and adolescents have among the highest rates of conventional crime victimization and, in addition, suffer from some crimes -- like sexual abuse and family abduction -- specific to childhood. Despite enormous publicity about crime and youth, however, all true statistics on juvenile victimization are rarely assembled in one place. These facts and statistics about crimes against children are compiled from a variety of sources.

Provided by The Crimes Against Children Research Center (CCRC) at the University of New Hampshire combats crimes and abuse against children by providing high quality research and statistics to the public, policy makers, law enforcement personnel, and other child welfare practitioners. CCRC is concerned with research about the nature of crimes including child abduction, homicide, rape, assault, and physical and sexual abuse as well as their impact.
