WCST is dedicated to ending domestic violence and sexual assault through intervention, prevention, education and safe shelter. Intimate partner violence, such as domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking,and human trafficking are completely preventable. If we STAND,SPEAK, and ACT to end intimate
partner violence in Josephine County,we can realize the goal of a safe, healthy community for all our citizens.

Allcare Health recognizes the value of Women's Crisis Support Team's free services.
AllCare Health has committed to match the first $40,000 raised through our 2018 "Rise to End Violence Campaign. AllCare Health CEO Doug Flow says, "The mental and physical problems resulting from domestic violence and sexual assault make it imperative for the medical community to support WCST. We want to encourage all to contribute to the Women's Crisis Support Team and be part of the solution."
