"I am not crazy. Everything I did during the assault was the right thing because I am alive. I am not alone."
--RAAP Client, when asked what were the 3 most important things she learned about herself during group counseling at RAAP.
You are not crazy and you are not alone. Most importantly, it is NOT your fault. If you are a victim of sexual violence, you have come to the right place. We are here to help. Welcome.
The mission of the Rape Assistance and Awareness Program (RAAP) is to work towards the elimination of sexual violence. The primary goals are to assist victims and educate the public about sexual violence and its prevention.
As the only rape crisis center serving metro-Denver since 1983, RAAP (pronounced "rap") has served over 450,000 individuals with services that assist victims of sexual assault and programs that educate the public about preventing sexual violence.
- THANK YOU to Our Generous Community Members and Businesses!!
Our Volunteer Appreciation Dinner was a great success thanks to the generosity of community members and local businesses!
Volunteers play a key role at RAAP. From answering hotline calls to going to the hospital to meet a person who as just been assaulted--they help us make sure those affected by sexual assault have the resources and tools they need. They are essential to our success and we hope they know just how much they are appreciated!
But we couldn't thank our volunteers without the help of the following community members and organizations who donated so generously to let our volunteers know just how appreciated they are. Thank you...
