The Bureau of Justice Statistics reports on why sexual assaults are not reported. Some of these reasons include:
Shame
Humiliation
Embarrassment
Self-blame or guilt
Fear of not being believed
Desire to keep the assault a private matter
Lack of trust in the criminal justice system
Fear of being accused of playing a role in the crime
77% of sexual assault victims do not report their attack. We hope to move the needle on that number.
