Being victimized is not an easy place to be. Either you are one of the victims of a crime that garners national media coverage or you are alone in the whole scenario, silenced by your persecutor and are too scared to speak up—the point remains the same, you need help. Whether you are a grown-up or a child still, who might be too young to comprehend the gravity of your situation, you should really be aware of the processes where victims are able to voice out their cases.

First is that you need to file a complaint either in oral or in written form. It is presented to a court where the judge can hear how the victim and his/her loved ones are affected by the crime done on him/her. This statement can also be presented outside of court, where crimes and interventions are concerned.

A website called Victim Support Services.org (VSS) presents these guide questions necessary for the content of your impact statement.

1. How did the crime affect you and your family?

a. in terms of the emotional impact

b. in terms of the financial impact

2. Do you have any propositions regarding the sentencing of your case?

3. Do you have anything about you and your case that you wish to express?

Although there are a lot of rules that pertain to how you can effectively voice out your concern, the real content lies in your story; be factual but truly express to them the impact the situation has on you and your loved ones. And maybe it’s not safe to include parts that are so personal in your content, like your contact details, you might want to consider checking out Personal History Statements. Lastly, be minded that your goal or vision in this quest is to attain justice, plan the actions that your are about to do, check our Sample Vision Statements for details.
