The general objective was to describe the process of overcoming the psychological trauma in the victims of sexual violence who attend FUBE, considering the emotions and feelings that arise throughout the penal process until the management 2020.

The population was made up of girls and teenagers as primary victims, family members as secondary victims, and FUBE’s specialized staff as social victims of sexual violence.
