WE HELP SURVIVORS

ACCESS is a harbor for all who have experienced violence and abuse, providing a safe environment for empowerment and exploration of personal strengths. ACCESS advocates for social change, partnering with other agencies to deliver education and professional training to end domestic violence, sexual violence, human trafficking, and victims of violent crimes.

While our mission’s focus is helping survivors of domestic and sexual abuse, we offer many more services that seek to help those find social justice. All services provided by ACCESS are free and confidential:
  • 24-hour Crisis Lines: Listening, support, information and advocacy
  • Housing: Safe, temporary emergency sheltering and housing for victims and their children.
  • Children's Programs: Counseling, advocacy, outings, and playgroups.
  • Individual Counseling: Short-term counseling to adult survivors of child sexual abuse, sexual assault, or domestic violence or dating violence.
  • Support Groups: Support groups for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and children who have experienced or witnessed family violence.
  • Advocacy: Support, information, and referrals for clients working with the legal, medical, or social service systems.
  • Community Education: Educational programming for schools, community groups, organizations, and agencies.
  • Crisis Response Services
  • SART (Story County Sexual Assault Response Team): Crisis support and on-going advocacy
