Support That Stays
Healing takes time. At DARCC, we stay.
For 15 years, survivors of sexual violence have trusted DARCC to provide consistent, trauma-informed care. From the first hospital visit to long-term counseling, from a hotline call in the night to a community workshop months later, we walk with survivors through every stage of recovery.
This North Texas Giving Day, you can help fund Support That Stays—the steady presence of care that does not disappear when the headlines fade or the crisis moment passes. Every gift ensures survivors can continue receiving counseling, advocacy, and education in the months and years that follow.
The Need
This year, DARCC faces a funding gap of $80,000 due to reduced federal support. That shortfall directly impacts our ability to answer hotline calls, provide hospital accompaniments, and offer ongoing counseling sessions.
Why It Matters
Survivors deserve more than a moment of care. They deserve support that lasts. Every session, every answered call, every volunteer who shows up is powered by community giving. Your gift makes sure help is always there, today and tomorrow.
Be Part of the Story
Join us this North Texas Giving Day and help close the gap.
Your generosity makes Support That Stays possible. For every survivor, for as long as it takes.
Mission
DARCC’s mission is to engage and educate communities to prevent sexual violence and to support survivors and their loved ones as they heal and thrive.
Our vision is a world free from sexual violence.
Equity Statement
At DARCC, we know that sexual violence does not discriminate. The survivors we serve with our wraparound services come from a variety of backgrounds and circumstances. But we also know that people of color are more vulnerable to inequitable treatment when they report crimes of sexual violence or seek support.
DARCC’s culturally competent staff, advocates, and volunteers are dedicated to making sure each and every survivor has access to the resources they need on their journey toward healing. We are intentional in how we meet the unique needs of our clients by connecting them with compassionate professionals who are sensitive to cultural differences, languages, and social norms. This requires a commitment to ensuring that our staff, board, and volunteers are diverse and representative of the community of survivors that seek help from DARCC.
As an example of our efforts to meet the unique socio-emotional needs of those we serve, we currently offer group therapy sessions for LGBTQI and Spanish-speaking survivors to help each person find support in a community that understands what they are going through as they heal from the trauma of sexual violence. We are also developing a group therapy session for Black female survivors of sexual assault to begin this fall.
DARCC compassionately serves survivors of all ages and cultural backgrounds, as well as every race, gender identity, and sexual orientation. This work is critical to advancing equity in North Texas.
