Robbery refers to any theft that occurs in the presence of the victim. If you’ve been the victim of a robbery, you may need assistance in coping with the aftermath. Find a victim support group and get your life back on track. Find a local group by visiting the Web site for the National Center for Victims of Crime (See Resources below). Contact your local police station. They have experience with robbery victims and will be able to put you in touch with a support group in your area. Start a support group of your own. Post a message online or put up simple flyers in coffee shops and grocery stores. Contact a local church or clergy member. Low-cost counseling services are often provided by religious organizations. Call the FBI Victim Assistance Services at (310) 996-3582. You may also call the United States Attorney’s Office, Victim/Witness Assistance Program at (888) 228-0315.
