Pa. rape crisis centers: We are not a budget line item
Advocates for Pennsylvania’s 47 rape crisis centers are calling for doubled state funding after six years of stagnant support, currently at $12 million. They highlight the impact of delayed funding, including staff layoffs and reduced services, and emphasize the critical role of these centers in providing trauma support and assistance to survivors.
