Federal Action on Rape, Sexual Assault, and Domestic Violence

This book analyzes the most recent, reliable data about rape and sexual assault in our country. It identifies those most at risk of being victims of these crimes, examines the cost of this violence (both to survivors and our communities), and describes the response, too often inadequate, of the criminal justice system. The book catalogues steps the Administration has taken to combat rape and sexual assault, and identifies areas for further action.
