(CNN) Coverage of the Harvey Weinstein trail and verdict may have elicited strong emotions for some people.
That's especially true for those who are survivors of sexual violence.
If you or someone you know is dealing with the aftermath of sexual assault, there are organizations that can help. Many are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and will confidentially listen, answer questions, provide local and legal resources and help determine the next steps.
• Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network, or RAINN, provides the National Sexual Assault Telephone Hotline at 800-656-4673, which will route you to a local affiliate organization.
