Maryland's Rape Crisis and Recovery Centers provide survivors with confidential services like crisis intervention and counseling. They also offer victim accompaniment to hospitals, police interviews, and court.
After a sexual assault, it's important to consider getting medical attention. Seeking treatment at one of the several hospitals throughout Maryland with a SAFE program will give you access to a free medical forensic exam by personnel specially trained to treat survivors.
Survivors have the right to be treated with dignity, respect, and sensitivity during the criminal justice process. The Sexual Assault Legal Institute (SALI) helps protect those rights by providing comprehensive legal services to survivors of sexual violence statewide.
We can fight sexual assault by working to make sure it never happens in the first place. There are many ways you can make a difference in your community!
