When one person says “no more” to abuse, it protects future generations.

“You helped me reverse a multi-generational cycle of abuse in my family.
I am so happy to report that in our family,
we do not protect an abuser.”

- *Chelsea, Mom & SAC Client

Sexual abuse is far too common... and increases during the holiday season. It is often cyclical and generational. But so is healing.

Healing Isn't Always Affordable
Therapy and other services can be the bridge between a survivor weighed down by trauma and one rediscovering healing and confidence.

“Although I’ve worked since I was 16, $50-$80 weekly therapy copays became unaffordable after a couple months. I’m grateful for SAC because I finally found a therapist I’m comfortable with and it’s at no cost to me, so I can continue treatment.”
