Support groups can provide a safe and understanding environment for survivors to share their experiences and learn from others who have faced similar challenges. Many rape crisis centers in Pennsylvania offer support groups specifically for survivors of sexual abuse.
Following a sexual assault, it is crucial to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Medical professionals can assess your physical well-being, provide necessary treatment, and gather forensic evidence if you choose to report the assault. In Pennsylvania, Sexual Assault Response Teams (SARTs) are available in many hospitals to provide coordinated care for survivors.
Survivors of sexual abuse may be eligible for financial assistance through the Pennsylvania Victim Compensation Assistance Program (VCAP). VCAP can provide compensation for various expenses, such as medical bills, counseling, lost wages, and relocation costs, incurred as a result of the crime.

Legal advocates can assist survivors in understanding their rights and options within the criminal justice system. Many rape crisis centers in Pennsylvania provide legal advocacy services to help survivors navigate the legal process, including obtaining protection orders, reporting to law enforcement, and understanding the court process.
