... not applicable Note: Information on programs targeting age and sex groups are aggregated from more detailed combined questions. For example, programs targeting 'adults' combine all programs targeting adult females, adult males, and adult both sexes. Totals do not add to 100% due to multiple responses. Respondents reporting for multiple locations provided a single response which was applied to all locations. Estimates for the number of victim service providers with various characteristics may therefore be overestimated.
