RAINN is available 24/7 as a hotline or on-line support service for families & survivors.
The organization has also been instrumental in addressing legislative issues, enhancing public awareness, organizing Hollywood actors/actresses for program themes accurate to survival and the crime of violence with sex.
RAINN is unique and has never failed to impress me as the core group for survivors.

I encountered discrimination and was told I wasn't eligible to participate with the online hotline service provided by RAINN. It wasn't because I had over 20+ years in the social work/nursing field, it was because I admitted to being a survivor and found helping out in the field very healing. I was told that "we do not recommend volunteering on the Online Hotline as a healing or therapeutic activity so the Online Hotline would not be a good fit for you right now."
So now when one admits and is honest about their sexual abuse, it is cause for omission and be ostracized. I wasn't contacted for further clarification regarding their concern, just simply told no.
