What Is Victims Services Psychology?

Through this program, you may be entitled to up to 22 hours of free counselling—with extensions available in complex or severe cases (e.g. child sexual abuse, multiple traumas, or modern slavery). Services are available to:
- Primary victims – individuals directly harmed by a violent crime

Importantly, you do not need a police report, charge, or conviction to access this support.
