Rape Survivor Advocacy

Rape survivor advocacy involves providing support, resources, and guidance to individuals who have experienced sexual assault. Advocates help survivors understand their options, navigate healthcare, legal processes, and counseling, while ensuring their rights are protected. They create a safe, compassionate environment that respects survivors’ choices, empowering them to recover and seek justice. Advocacy may occur through hotlines, support groups, or working directly with law enforcement and healthcare providers, aiming to reduce trauma, promote healing, and foster meaningful change in how society responds to sexual violence.
