Reporting a Crime

If you have been the victim of a crime it is important to report it. We know that sometimes it is not an easy decision to come forward, but we also know that if no one reports a crime it is as if it never happened.

If no one reports a crime, the criminal is free to commit more crime, potentially damaging more communities and individuals.
