Mission

The Monterey County Rape Crisis Center (MCRCC) is a nonprofit agency whose mission is to provide ongoing advocacy, support and healing for all victims and survivors of sexual assault, human trafficking and child abuse; and to prevent sexual violence in our community through education.

The Big Idea

The Monterey County Rape Crisis Center provides critical support and a place of refuge for survivors of sexual violence. The nonprofit’s Big Idea this year is to expand its services so that no individual in Monterey County who experiences sexual abuse goes unaided – this means deepening a commitment to survivors by offering more services. Besides crisis response, the center also offers a curriculum to educate young people on healthy relationships and violence prevention.
