🌟 Reflecting on 50 years of service to Sedgwick County! In 1974, a courageous group started tackling r**e culture within our community. They established our 24-hour hotline and medical advocacy services to support survivors. Today, we continue to build on that foundation, offering vital support to our community through education, advocacy, and ther**eutic services. Thank you to Wichita City Council, Mayor Wu, Sedgwick County Commission, and Chairman Baty for recognizing our journey with Proclamations. Here's to celebrating our past and paving the way for our future together! There is still work to do to make sure ALL survivors are believed and supported and ALL perpetrators are held accountable. We all deserve safe and supportive communities.

Our Story
Sexual violence violates a person’s trust, autonomy, and safety. At the Wichita Area Sexual Assault Center, we recognize that sexualized violence occurs anytime someone is forced, manipulated, and/or coerced into any unwanted sexual advances or activity. The range of sexual violence includes r**e, child sexual abuse, in**st, date and acquaintance r**e, statutory r**e, marital or partner r**e, commercial sexual exploitation, human trafficking, voyeurism, and sexual harassment.
Sexual violence is a crime motivated by the perpetrator’s wish to humiliate, control, and harm. These crimes are never the victim’s fault.
We continue to move forward and strive towards our vision of a community free of the occurrence and threat of sexual violence.
