Hate Crime Awareness Week 2017

Hate crimes are under-reported, with only 40% estimated to be reported. Reporting is crucial to combatting hate crimes. Various reasons inhibit reporting, but it is essential for community safety and awareness. Reporting options include police, anonymous reporting, third-party reporting, and specialized support organizations. Victims of hate crimes can access advice, support, and resources through various channels. Together, through reporting, we can drive hate from our streets and create a safer community for all.
