Sexual Assault Crisis & Support Center's mission is to lessen the trauma-related suffering of sexual assault and promote healing by guiding those affected by sexual violence toward survival through support, advocacy, education, and community collaboration.
The Sexual Assault Crisis and Support Center provides the following services free of charge:
- The Children's Advocacy Center
- A 24-hour, confidential, statewide, sexual assault support line
- Support Groups for survivors of sexual violence
- Client Support Services for survivors of sexual violence, their families, and supporters
- Advocacy for survivors who choose to seek medical attention, report to police, or go through the criminal justice system
- Community school-based prevention and intervention education
Sexual Assault Crisis and Support Center's Children's Advocacy Center provides a child-friendly, safe and neutral location in which Law Enforcement and Child Protective Service Investigators may conduct and observe Forensic Interviews with children who are alleged victims of crimes, and where the child and non-offending family members receive support, crisis intervention, and referrals for mental health and medical treatment in an effort to lessen the trauma, promote healing, and increased accountability to offenders. With the CAC model, children and their families no longer have to repeatedly tell their story or face the investigation process alone. Through our child-friendly environment and experienced professionals, families are immediately offered a wide array of services, all free of charge.
