Help for crime victims

If you become victim of a crime, this is very bad and you sometimes feel helpless and left alone.

But only a few know that you are not so alone at all, that there are places of refuge and contact points which offer advisory, company and protection.

Besides that moral support it’s sometimes also possible to apply for financial support.

In most cases the advice is even free of charge and can be done confidentially if requested.
