Opferperspektive has been providing comprehensive and professional counseling for victims of right-wing violence and racial discrimination in Brandenburg since 1998. The central services include:

• Individual Counseling and Support: Psychosocial crisis intervention, counseling, stabilization, and accompaniment of victims, as well as support in filing reports and during investigations and criminal proceedings[2][3][4].

The main mission of Opferperspektive is to advise and support victims of right-wing violence and racial discrimination, as well as to promote a solidarity counterweight in civil society. The organization advocates for the victims' side and documents right-wing attacks to highlight the extent of the violence[1][2][4].

• Education and Awareness: Through the publication of brochures and handouts, such as "Actually, I feel comfortable here" about everyday racism, Opferperspektive contributes to the education and awareness of the public[5].
• Networking and Training: The organization supports individuals and initiatives that advocate for victims of right-wing violence through counseling, training, and materials[4].
• Legal Counseling and Support: Opferperspektive explains the process of criminal proceedings, accompanies victims to the police and court, and assists in finding a lawyer[3].
