Are you a victim of sexual assault or know someone who is?

You came to the right place!

Start by Believing helps sexual assault victims and support people gather information, explore options, and take action. It puts you in the driver’s seat, all while remaining anonymous. By guiding you through a series of questions, you can figure out which options are right for you.

If you prefer, you can always directly get in touch with an Embrace advocate 24/7 who is completely confidential and knows about your local resources and options. An Embrace on-call victim advocate can also meet you in-person at hospitals, law enforcement centers, or assist in transportation to shelter.
