We are Dane County’s only full-service sexual violence resource center.
Formerly the Rape Crisis Center, RCC has served survivors and their loved ones in Dane County since 1973. RCC provides vital support services to survivors of all forms of sexual violence including recent or past sexual assault, incest, sexual harassment, and sexual exploitation.
As one of the first ‘rape crisis centers’ in the nation, RCC has been a leader in advocating for those harmed by sexual violence by centering survivors, promoting societal change, and committing to be an evolving force for social equity.
