Crisis Care
GVCASA provides a 24/7 crisis care response to anyone who has experienced sexual assault at any point in their lives.
GVCASA provides confidential, telephone or face to face crisis care for people who have experienced past and/or recent sexual assault.
A state-wide 24/7 telephone crisis line is available by calling GVCASA, and for recent sexual assault an immediate face to face response with a crisis care worker is available 24/7.
The GVCASA crisis care worker meets with recent victim/survivor at GV Health or the Police station. The crisis care worker will provide support and advocacy; and information on legal and medical rights and options. Access to immediate support, advocacy and accurate information is crucial for the victim/survivor’s longer term healing.
If you wish to report a sexual assault to police, please contact the Victoria Police, Sexual Offences and Child Abuse Investigation Team (SOCIT).
