Over 250 rapes were reported in Norman between 2000-05
The FBI estimates that only 1 in 10 rapes are reported, nationally
 

In 2004, the Women's Resource Center established the Rape Crisis Center to meet the special needs of sexual assault victims
 
·  The RCC offers forensic exams, by specially trained volunteer nurses, in a setting that is much more private and nurturing than an emergency room. Victims can have a loved one or friend with them during the exam, usually not possible in an ER.
 
·  Antibiotics to combat sexually transmitted disease and Plan B to prevent pregnancy are provided for free as part of the exam.
 
· Linkages to counseling are made faster than usually can be done in a hospital setting.
 
·  Rape Response Team members, also volunteers, support the victim through the exam process and during investigative and legal procedures.
 
·  Since opening, the RCC has helped over 100 victims, including men.
