As for Team C we have discovered that the missions of our two different categories are basically the same. The mission is to help the victim and make others aware that there is help in preventive services when it comes to these issues at hand. The similarities in the mission of the domestic violent category as well as the sexual assault category is almost identical. The mission for sexual assault is to deliver confidential care, support, and advocacy for victims of sexual assault, while concurrently endorsing awareness and prevention programs. Sexual violence is a serious problem that can have lasting, harmful effects on victims and their family, friends, and societies. As for the domestic violent mission it states to provide comprehensive support and advocacy services to victim/survivors, focusing on immediate and long-term safety, empowerment, dignity, and hope. We as a team think that it is pretty clear that the main objective here is to advocate, prevent, and make aware the services offered to victims in these traumatic experiences. The differences between the two issues is the funding for these programs determine if the doors stay open or if the services will continue to be offered to the victims at hand. Domestic violence is sometimes if not all the time not taken seriously because the victims either make up with their abuser or do not press charges as a result of fear of retaliation for the suspect. As for sexual assault programs We believe that funding will always be giving to these programs because of the severity of the issue. We are not saying that domestic violence is not severe but domestic violence has a tendency to titer the fence and hold up court proceedings with uncertainty of what the victim wants to do. However in the domestic violence topic it is not up to the victim to press charges on the suspect
