The YWCA North Shore Rape Crisis Center provides services to all sexual assault survivors aged 12 and  older and their non-offending family members and partners. We welcome all survivors regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, economic status, or legal status. All of our services are free and confidential.  With our sister site locations [Lawrence and Haverhill] we serve more than 15,000 survivors each year, including women, children and families from throughout the Merrimack Valley and Essex County. We are an affiliate of the YWCA USA, the nation’s oldest and largest multicultural women’s organization working for social and economic change.

 

The YWCA is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all.
