Richard Torres, College Rapes, Page 2 Defining sexual victimization The Justice Departments study defines a completed rape as an unwanted completed penetration by force or the threat of force. However, sexual victimization is not limited to just a completed rape. Types of sexual victimization include attempted rape, sexual coercion, sexual contact with or without force, threat of rape and many more. The study measured twelve forms of sexual victimizations among college women including stalking and visual and verbal forms. Helping sexual victims The study reinforces the importance of many organizations efforts to improve education and knowledge about sexual assault. One of the nations largest charities for sexual assault victims is the RAINN organization. RAINN operates the National Sexual Assault Hotline as well as provides programs to prevent sexual violence, help victims and bring attackers to justice. Some victims, like Alexa Branchini, have decided to use their stories to help other victims. Branchini has her own foundation that seeks to help rape victims. See Alexas story here. ###
