The Rape Recovery Center offers support to family, friends and partners of survivors of sexual violence--we call these support people “secondary survivors,” as they too are navigating the devastating effects of a loved one being harmed.   It is important to remember that supporting a loved one who's been sexually assaulted can be a difficult experience. Secondary survivors often report feelings of helplessness,  a desire to protect or control the survivor and feelings of fear and anxiety.  We offer a variety of services for secondary survivors that focus on the well being, and their options for supporting a survivor.  To access secondary survivor services, please contact our office at 801.467.7282 and schedule an initial appointment.
