Rebuilding Hope Sexual Assault Center

What Rebuilding Hope Sexual Assault Center does

Rebuilding Hope Sexual Assault Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization operating as the designated Community Sexual Assault Program for Pierce and Kitsap counties in Washington State. Founded in 1975 as Pierce County Rape Relief (PCRR), the organization rebranded to Sexual Assault Center of Pierce County (dba Rebuilding Hope Sexual Assault Center) and has operated continuously for 50 years. Its service portfolio is built around four core pillars: Advocacy Services (delivered via 24/7 helpline, confidential online chat through the Izzy Platform, and in-person hospital/court advocacy), Therapy Services (trauma-informed individual, couples, and family counseling, with virtual/telehealth options), Education & Prevention (school-based and professional training, including the state-certified 30-hour Advocate Core Training), and the STEP program (Sex Trafficking and Exploitation Program with 24-hour crisis intervention and case management for survivors of commercial sexual exploitation). Survivor support groups round out the offering.

The organization is funded through a hybrid nonprofit revenue model anchored by government grants (Washington Office of Crime Victims' Advocacy, City of Tacoma), healthcare partnerships (MultiCare Community Partnership Funds, Mary Bridge Children's Hospital), individual donations and monthly giving (Teal Team), legacy/bequest gifts, corporate sponsorships, cause-marketing events with local businesses, and modest training fees ($175 per Advocate Core attendee, with free seats for OCVA-funded peers). The annual Spring Soiree gala has scaled from ~$55K in 2022 to over $185K in 2025. The go-to-market is community-led and event-driven: a 24/7 helpline, confidential chat, in-person advocacy, partnerships with healthcare providers, schools, law enforcement, and community organizations, and outreach at community events (Pride festivals, Juneteenth, school programs). All direct services to victim-survivors are provided free of charge. The organization operates from a newly renovated Hilltop headquarters in Tacoma opened January 2025, and serves a primary client base of victim-survivors of sexual assault and abuse, with dedicated outreach to LGBTQ+, BIPOC, youth, and trafficking survivor populations.

Emerging players

Broad incumbents

• RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network): National anti-sexual violence organization operating the largest U.S. sexual assault helpline and funding local centers. Operates at far greater scale but shapes the broader funding and policy environment for community-based providers.

• YWCA Pierce County: Regional YWCA chapter offering broader women- and family-focused services including domestic violence advocacy in Pierce County. Adjacent rather than direct competitor, with overlapping DV survivor case management.

Others

• National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC): National resource hub providing training, research, and prevention tools to sexual violence service providers. Indirect peer shaping Rebuilding Hope's prevention-education curriculum and best-practice framework.

Direct peers

• King County Sexual Assault Resource Center (KCSARC): Washington's largest community sexual assault program, providing 24/7 crisis intervention, therapy, and advocacy in King County. Closest direct peer given shared service model, state funding stream (OCVA), and trauma-informed clinical portfolio.
• Domestic Violence Services of Snohomish County: Snohomish County regional agency delivering DV and sexual assault crisis lines, advocacy, and therapy. Operates an analogous county-level nonprofit model reliant on state and county grants.
• SafePlace: Thurston County nonprofit offering sexual assault and domestic violence crisis, advocacy, and therapy services. Comparable regional community-based model delivering free survivor services with similar funding mix.

Regional players
