My $.02:
Let them know you're available, but don't push. Rape is a violent crime with very deep, personal undertones. Your friends and their families are going through some serious times right now, which have to be borne in solitude. Soon, they will want to reach out. Just let them know you're available, and eventually they will come to you, and that's when you will be able to get involved and give them your support. There is a process that governs dealing with such a vicious, brutal attack. Right now you're not a part of it, but you will be if you exercise a little patience and caring.
