Supporting Survivors, Cultivating Community, Pursuing Justice

RAINN is committed to supporting survivors of sexual violence, cultivating communities of anti-sexual violence activism, and promoting policies that deliver justice and hold perpetrators accountable.

We're proud of the work we’ve done. But there’s still so much left to do.

Together, we can create a world free from sexual violence.

Let’s get to work.

30 Years of Hope

"Are you in a safe place to talk?” On July 27, 1994, RAINN took the first call on the National Sexual Assault Hotline. Since then we have supported nearly 5 million survivors and their loved ones.

As we commemorate 30 years of impact, we also want to acknowledge the work still left to do and call on people everywhere to join us.
