Victim characteristics

    This week, you learned about victimology, including victim characteristics; and you read about behaviors and environments that contribute to victimization. For your assignment, you will prepare a presentation designed to educate public policy makers about the incidence of victimization. Additionally, you will propose a victimization prevention plan. You can choose a specific population to base the presentation on (e.g., domestic violence or child abuse) or you can do a general incidence/prevention presentation. You can also use a prevention program already developed, but tailor it to a new location or population. Your presentation should include: Explanation of the incidence of victimization. Discussion of the contributing factors to victimization. Exploration of the current methods used to prevent victimization. Explanation of your proposed prevention plan.
