Services

We offer a number of services to assist members of our community with a variety of services.

We believe all women can embrace who they are,
can define their future, and can change the world.

Survivor Advocacy

A trained advocate is available 24 hours a day, 365 days/year to assist sexual violence survivors through our telephone hotline and hospital accompaniment services.

 

Pickens County Advocacy Center provides 24 hour anonymous hotline services.  You can reach a trained victim advocate by calling our office number 864.442.5500.  After regular business hours, your call will be transferred to our on-call victim advocate.  Survivors, friends, and family members may use this hotline to receive information regarding reporting options, PCAC services, and other community referrals.

 

Counseling

Our mission is to support survivors of sexual assault and abuse through treatment services and to end sexual violence in the Pickens County community through education, advocacy, and collaboration.
