BeLEAF Survivors Sexual Assault Services (SAS) provides a number of short-term and ongoing services to survivors of sexual assault and their support people, including a 24-hour crisis line, 24-hour hospital response, personal advocacy, legal advocacy, counseling, and support groups. We also provide bilingual advocacy services for Spanish-speaking survivors.

BeLEAF Sobrevivientes/Servicios de asalto sexual provee una serie de servicios a corto plazo y continuos a los sobrevivientes del asalto sexual y sus personas de apoyo, incluyendo una línea de crisis las 24 horas, una respuesta hospitalaria las 24 horas, la defensa personal, la defensa legal, la terapia y grupos de apoyo. También proveemos servicios de la defensa bilingüe a los sobrevivientes hispanohablantes. 

BeLEAF’s Stop Child Abuse & Neglect (SCAN) program provides school-based child abuse awareness curriculums to students at your school/s. Lessons are presented to preschool and kindergarten children, and 2nd, 4th and 6th grade students. The information provided is developmentally appropriate and aims to reduce child victimization and the stigma of abuse by teaching children to recognize dangerous and abusive situations, distinguish between safe and unsafe touches, say “no” to unwanted advances, encourage children to tell an adult about such episodes, and assure children that such incidents are never the fault of the child. 

Children have the right to feel safe. Without a safe start, they face barriers to success and the cycle of pain continues.   Call us today  (262) 619-1634, volunteer today.  You may help a child today.
