What if your presence helped someone feel heard? Believed?

Our fall Sexual Assault Advocacy training starts this September and we are looking for compassionate and committed community members to join our team of volunteers! 🔥

As a volunteer advocate, you'll receive specialized training and ongoing support to stand along survivors when they need it most.

Ready to step into advocacy?

It's Wishlist Wednesday!

Our Art Support Group is a space where survivors have the freedom to create in whatever way feels right to them.
Recently, we experienced a flood in our art room that caused us to lose a lot of our art supplies. Since then, we've been working hard to rebuild and create a safe space for our Art Support Group.

If you are able, please consider helping us replace some of the supplies we lost by donating to PAVSA or checking out our wishlist. 💙
