A Hate Crime Campaign (2020)

By law, a Hate Crime is defined as - "Any criminal offence which is perceived by the victim or any other person, to be motivated by hostility or prejudice, based on a person's disability or perceived disability; race or perceived race; or religion or perceived religion; or sexual orientation or perceived sexual orientation or a person who is transgender or perceived to be transgender." Many people, particularly those in isolated communities, may find it difficult or be reluctant to report to the police directly, but may be more willing to report to a community resource. Don't be afraid, you're not alone. Contact your local authorities or send in an online form reporting any sort of crime witnessed to prevent future recurrence.
