You Choose What To Do Next: Navigating the Criminal Legal System Guide

I co-created the trauma-informed guide through Consent Comes First to support people affected by sexual violence in understanding how the criminal legal system works. The survivor-informed guide provides information on reporting, what happens after the court process is over, and everything in between. Created in collaboration with survivors, legal experts, student leaders and frontline workers, the You Choose What To Do Next guide is packed with legal information, self-care ideas and advice from survivors. We hope it will help you make informed decisions throughout the legal process.
