The Rape Crisis Center is our only non-profit dedicated to providing crisis response, advocacy, support and education to those affected by sexual violence. Our mission is to commit to offering help, hope, and healing to those affected by sexual violence. We provide education, awareness and support as far as our arms can reach. The Rape Crisis Center responds to calls 24-hours a day, seven days a week. An advocate is available to meet victims at the hospital and follow up with referrals to counseling, support groups and medical aid.
The Rape Crisis Center also provides the following services:
- Acting as a liaison between Metro and the victim
- Court advocacy
- Assistance in applying for victims of crime compensation
- 24-hour hotline for primary and secondary victims
- Educational programs for children and adults
- NWP Signs of Hope Counseling Services
All services are free to victims.
The Rape Crisis Center dates back to 1974, when Florence McClure and Sandra Petta were outraged by the community’s lack of resources and respect for those affected by sexual assault. They started Community Action Against Rape, which operated out of Mrs. McClure’s home. The goal was to help those affected by sexual violence.
Today, The Rape Crisis Center is located on the College of Southern Nevada campus, and the staff and volunteers also work throughout the Valley. The Rape Crisis Center has a dedicated team of staff and our volunteers. Our goal remains the same: The Rape Crisis Center is committed to helping those in our community heal from the trauma of sexual violence. The Rape Crisis Center continues serving all of Clark County, Nevada.
