Summary

The vulnerability of victims is determined by various factors including the type of crime they were the victim of and their personal characteristics. One characteristic that can heighten vulnerability is a Mild Intellectual Disability. In this context, this study was commissioned to determine how to give victims with a Mild Intellectual Disability the support they need in order to give effect to their rights, and how to protect them from secondary victimization.
