The main aim of this programme was to enable Rape Crisis to improve service provision and accountability, and to identify emerging themes and trends from the data. A brief history of Rape Crisis is included. The data collected includes the number of Rape Crisis contacts logged, and by which service throughout New Zealand; the type of contact, either survivor or referrer; the type of abuse; when the abuse occurred; the age at which the abuse occurred; the frequency and duration of the abuse; the relationship of the survivor to the perpetrator; police notifications; and Accident Compensation Corporation counselling claims. The findings show that there were 25,331 contacts with Rape Crisis, with 43% of these made by survivors; most contact was self-referral; the majority of clients were of New Zealand Pakeha/European descent (70%); and more than half the survivors (53%) were raped or sexually abused as children.
