2. After reviewing State Report Cards, provide an analysis of the current state of protections for victims as well as penalties for perpetrators for the state in which your case was located. Address the five main categories of review and be sure to provide specific examples to support your analysis.State report cards retrieved from: Datar, S. (2016).

4. While sexual abuse and assault can impact anyone, it disproportionately occurs to individuals who gender-identify as female. What impact can this have on equity and access to health care for these individuals when it occurs in a health care setting?
