Help and Support

PARCS provide Children’s Independent Sexual Violence Advocates to those aged 5-12 who have been victims of rape and/or sexual assault and have an ongoing criminal investigation. The aim is to help the child understand the criminal justice process, advocate for them by liaising with other agencies, provide a support plan and deliver any necessary support to the child throughout the investigation.

The service covers Portsmouth and South East Hampshire, postcodes PO1-PO17 and GU30 – GU32.
