Brazos County
Rape Crisis Center
"Make a difference, be a volunteer"
The Brazos County Rape Crisis Center trains volunteers
in providing support counseling skills to survivors of sexual
assault, their family members and friends. These skills are
used by volunteers to answer the 24 hour hotline (call forward
to their homes evenings/weekends), provide accompaniment
to hospitals/police stations and face-to-face counseling.
Take this opportunity to join this compassionate group of
committed, concerned and SUPER volunteers.
