Rape and Sexual ViolenceA great number of unaccompanied immigrant minors have experienced some form of sexual assault. Some children are victimized while still living at home by family, friends, or strangers. Many others are assaulted or raped along their journey to the United States at the hands of traffickers or fellow travelers. The following resources are for service providers supporting refugee and immigrant children who have experienced sexual assault.
