The Victim/Suspect team is committed to working towards a world where no victim is treated like a suspect. Our impact campaign is collaborating with trusted partners to leverage the film towards this goal and make resources available to people who need them.

Would you like to host a screening of Victim/Suspect in your community? Please get in touch.

For individuals motivated to get involved, we encourage you to:

Inquire about the crime publication standards at your local news outlets. Victim/Suspect shows the damage caused by reporting crime based on police statements or sources only. This email template includes links to resources for outlets who don’t have a process in place for addressing this.

Share your story. The Center on Gender Justice & Opportunity at Georgetown Law is conducting a study on women who report sexual assault to police but are arrested for giving police “false” information—even though they are actually telling the truth.

Save and share these tips and red flags to watch for when reporting sexual assault. These quick reference tips can be saved in your phone – and we encourage everyone to take a deeper dive on the Resources page of our website.
