Support Healing & Hope

When you donate to RACS you are helping survivors by helping to give them hope in their healing journey. Every part of your donation goes back to supporting survivors.
Without the support of generous donors, RACS would not be able to provide the safe healing environment that currently exists for survivors. Your support ensures that RACS professional staff are able to focus on the needs of each individual resident and survivor while maintaining dignity and confidentiality. We know that we can’t meet every need of every survivor on our own and we invite you to be a part of continuing to create a space of healing and hope for survivors where ever they may need it.
