Our mission is to promote the compassionate and just treatment of survivors and their loved ones; foster collaborative relationships between community systems; and affect attitudinal and behavioral changes in society as we work toward the elimination of sexual violence against all people.
What We Do
The New Jersey Coalition Against Sexual Assault (NJCASA) promotes the compassionate and just treatment of survivors and their loved ones, fosters collaborative relationships between community systems, and affects attitudinal and behavioral changes in society as we work towards the elimination of sexual violence against all people. We represent the state's recognized 21 county-based sexual violence service organizations and the Office of Violence Prevention and Victim Assistance at Rutgers University, New Brunswick. Our approach includes elevating the voice of survivors and service providers, advocating for survivor-centered policy, training allied professionals, and supporting statewide prevention strategies that work to defy the socio-cultural norms that permit and promote rape culture.
