In August 2015, CMSAC began our Women of Worth program. W.O.W. is an empowering, gender-responsive, and trauma-informed psycho-educational program that covers various topics relevant to women who have been involved in the sex industry in some form. CMSAC is currently looking for monetary donations to help purchase a gift for the women graduating from this program. If you are interested, please contact the center at (320) 251-4357 and ask for Rebecca K. or via email at rkotz@cmsac.org.

CMSAC would like to offer an opportunity for survivors to partake in creative expression as part of their journey to heal from sexual violence. Journey to Heal is requesting creative pieces made by survivors to display at a sexual violence awareness event at St. Cloud State University. Survivor stories bring a creative component to the awareness of sexual violence issues and helps to break the silence in which sexual violence thrives.
