Mayo Rape Crisis Centre
Mayo Rape Crisis Centre
Mayo Rape Crisis Centre was established in July 1994 by a small group of women concerned at the lack of services or support in Mayo for women who had experienced sexual violence, abuse or rape.
Mayo Rape Crisis Centre exists to prevent and respond to the crimes of rape, sexual abuse and sexual violence by providing free, professional and confidential counselling in the community for survivors and their families/friends. The Centre also works to raise awareness of the reality of sexual violence through advocacy and training in the community.
We are an independent, expert, dedicated, community-based non-governmental Organisation (NGO) made up of staff, volunteers, our Board and supporters. We achieve our mission through maintaining the highest levels of expertise in our provision of professional counselling, advocacy, support, specialist training and raising awareness of the reality of sexual violence.
