Then write a three-page reflection paper, imagine you are a victim services worker. You have two clients, a brother and sister. The brother has autism and is moderate on the functioning scale, and the sister has cerebral palsy. Both were victims of bullying and physical abuse at school.

  1. What kinds of services/needs may they have that are different than other victims you may work with?
  2. What kinds of programs exist in your area (e.g., location, area of expertise) to assist victims of crime with disabilities? How would you provide these services to your clients?
  3. Are there public policy initiatives that exist to assist them?
  4. Referring to the potential causes of crime in the chapter, is there one (or more) that fits the probable cause of their victimization? Explain your rationale.

Please use APA formatting for the reflections paper.
