Victim Resources

The University of Florida believes that crime is never the fault of the victim. We understand that accessing and navigating resources may be a difficult and daunting task. We have compiled a list of resources that are available for you through UF, local, and national resources.

If you would like to talk to a Victim Advocate to discuss any of these resources or next steps, you can contact the Office of Victim Services at: (352) 392-5648, Monday-Friday 8-5 (352) 392-1111, after hours.
