For LGBTQ Survivors
The Sex Abuse Treatment Center provides a safe and welcoming environment to receive care and support.
In order to ensure that every member of our staff is trained to meet the specific needs of LGBTQ survivors and their communities, SATC partners with the Hawai‘i Coalition Against Sexual Assault, the Hawai‘i State Department of Health’s LGBTQ Community Action Team, and FORGE, a nationally recognized LGBTQ+ advocacy organization.
Our staff offers the full range of sexual assault services including:
- 24/7 hotline and web chat crisis support and information
- Medical-forensic examinations
- In-person crisis counseling and legal systems advocacy
- Clinical therapy and psychiatric medication management
- Education and outreach services
- Public policy advocacy
In addition, SATC is also committed to fully implementing the Hawai‘i Coalition Against Sexual Assault’s LGBTQ-Enhanced Best Practice Standards for the Delivery of Sexual Assault Services in Hawai’i (February 2015) and Readiness Guidelines for Serving LGBTQ Victims and Survivors of Sexual Violence (October 2017).
