"Children are not a distraction from important work...

they are the most important work"

SOUTHERN CRESCENT SEXUAL ASSAULT

AND CHILD ADVOCACY CENTER and THE BRIGHT HOUSE  provide a COLLABORATIVE, COORDINATED COMMUNITY RESPONSE in an effort to reduce the incidence of

CHILD MALTREATMENT and SEXUAL VIOLENCE through

PREVENTION, INTERVENTION, and EDUCATION.

Every 73 seconds, an American is sexually assaulted.

And every 9 minutes, that victim is a child. 

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

​

In 2017, the Sexual Assault Kit Victim Notification Portal was  created to assist survivors of sexual assault who believe their sexual assault kit may not have been previously tested.

​

Survivors can visit notify.svrga.org to communicate their preferences

regarding notification of reopened investigations and prosecutions.
