Scared, alone, hurt–confused–raped– do you need a friend?
There’s help now. Sympathetic understanding women, many of whom have gone through the same thing, are womanning phones to take your calls and do everything they can to make this time easier for you.
They’re ready to help with counseling; referral; transportation, if you’re stranded; and emotional support as you go through the authorities thing if you choose to report the crime.
The choice to report or not is up to you and the Rape Crisis Center keeps everything absolutely confidential.
They work for you.
Call 727 – 2727 if you ever need their help or if you want to help them in their work.
