The Rape Crisis Center provides help, hope, and healing to those impacted by sexual violence. While understanding that a traumatic experience can have a long-term effect on someone’s mental, emotional and physical health, the Rape Crisis Center is focused on providing services to survivors to help them begin their healing journey. 


RCC’s education department conducts training for all organizations interested in learning about sexual violence. Some of this education is done through the “Beyond Silence” podcast. The education department conducts outreach at events, where they educate the community on the center’s services.


These free services include a 100% confidential 24/7 hotline and online chat for survivors to utilize. The Rape Crisis Center’s advocates work directly with law enforcement if the survivor decides to make a report. The advocates accompany the survivor to the police interview, so that conversations with law enforcement remain trauma informed. Accompaniment to other places like the hospital is another way the RCC provides emotional support during a vulnerable time.

RCC can provide mental health, essential needs, or counseling assistance when the survivor is ready. Digital Media and Community Outreach Coordinator, Lauren Aguillon, stated that RCC does not want survivors to suffer silently, and the Rape Crisis Center understands you can feel overwhelmed by how the assault has impacted your life. Lauren wants survivors to know that they have the right to heal the way they see fit and on their own timing.


The Rape Crisis Center offers other services like free unlimited counseling and in-person support groups. They offer an essential needs program which includes access to a food pantry, clothing, hygiene products, utility assistance, and transportation assistance. Additionally, they have a victim relocation program to relocate survivors away from the home they were assaulted in.
