Title : Title 22. HEALTH AND WELFARE
Chapter : Chapter 269. RAPE CRISIS CENTERS

Title 22 - §1661. Legislative intent
Title 22: HEALTH AND WELFARE
Subtitle 2: HEALTH
Part 3: PUBLIC HEALTH (HEADING: PL 1989, c. 487, @11 (rpr))
Chapter 269: RAPE CRISIS CENTERS
§1661. Legislative intent
The Legislature finds that rape and sexual assault are crimes of violence that are both underreported and increasing in incidence;
that victims of rape need support services and counseling that are currently unavailable from traditional medical or legal
institutions; that the recent formation of local and regional rape crisis centers has provided rape and sexual assault victims
with vital counseling and intervention services; and that the volunteer efforts of these and future rape crisis centers shall
be supported and enhanced on a statewide basis, if possible. The Legislature declares that it is consistent with public policy
to fund counseling and preventive educational programs by rape crisis centers.
[1983, c. 826, § 1 (new).]
