Information and advocacy for Title IX report and investigation processes
Help accessing student accommodations, campus no-contact orders, and other supportive services at Carroll and in the community

Services for Secondary Victims

If a friend or loved one of yours was assaulted or abused and you want to help, learn how you can safely assist survivors. You can also get additional information by getting in touch with our advocates.

What's a secondary victim?
A secondary victim is the friend or loved one of somebody who's experienced violence or abuse. You don't have to be the primary victim of assault, abuse, stalking, or another crime to feel anger, guilt, and pain. TFC is here to help all who are affected by domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking in our community.
