This includes the evaluation of mental health needs, as well as the actual delivery of <br />psychotherapy. Individuals who provide this service must meet the criteria outlined in the Florida Statutes <br />(F. S.). <br />Unduplicated Victims are victims not counted on previous reports. Unduplicated victims may be either <br />primary or secondary victims of crime. A person may be counted more than once only as a result of an <br />entirely separate and unrelated crime during the reporting period, e.g., a domestic violence victim is <br />victimized during a separate episode. <br />206 <br />Page 8 <br />
