Support SASS. Support Survivors.

Your Generosity Creates Safe Spaces for Survivors.

Every donation to SASS — Sexual Assault Safe Space helps us build a community where survivors of sexual assault are heard, believed, supported, and empowered.

Sexual assault can change every part of a survivor’s life. SASS exists to make sure survivors do not have to navigate the aftermath alone.

Your generosity helps us provide compassionate survivor support, essential resources, community education, outreach activities, care packages, advocacy, and the foundation for our long-term vision: creating a dedicated inpatient care facility specifically designed to support survivors of sexual assault.

Whether you give once or become a monthly donor, you are helping SASS turn compassion into action

Where Your Donation Goes

Your donation helps support the programs, activities, resources, and growth of SASS.

Survivor Resources & Support

Donations help SASS provide practical resources to survivors during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.

Funds may help support:

- Survivor care packages containing comfort and essential items

- Resources for women, men, and children who have experienced sexual assault

- Emergency and immediate-needs supplies

Our goal is simple: when a survivor reaches out for help, we want them to encounter compassion, dignity, and support.

Awareness is one of the most important tools we have to prevent sexual violence and create a community that knows how to respond when someone is victimized.

SASS uses donations to participate in and organize community outreach activities such as:

Through outreach, we work to create communities where people understand that sexual assault is never the survivor's fault and where survivors know that help is available.

Our Biggest Dream: A SASS Inpatient Care Facility

From a Safe Space to a Place of Healing.

SASS has a long-term vision that goes beyond providing resources and care packages.

We want to create a dedicated inpatient care facility specifically for survivors of sexual assault.

Imagine a place where a survivor could step away from the environment surrounding their trauma and enter a safe, compassionate, survivor-centered setting designed specifically around their needs.

Our long-term vision includes developing a facility where survivors can have access to comprehensive support in one safe environment.

The facility we envision could eventually provide:

- Safe residential accommodations

- Survivor-centered crisis support

- Professional counseling and therapeutic services

- Medical and wellness resources

- Trauma-informed care

- Advocacy services

- Educational programming

- Life-skills support

- Peer connection

- Healing and recreational activities

- Family support resources

- Connections to community and professional services

- A safe environment focused on recovery, dignity, and empowerment

This vision will take time, planning, partnerships, professional expertise, and significant financial investment.

But every step starts somewhere.

Today's donation helps SASS serve survivors today while helping us build toward tomorrow.
