Rural survivors, advocates, service providers, institutions, and organizations face a unique slate of challenges due to geographic isolation and limited access to resources.

Recognizing the pivotal role rural service providers play in combating domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking, we provide tailored support and innovative consultation to further cultivate the capacity of rural communities across the country.

To best serve survivors, organizations need to be equipped with the tools, structures, and knowledge that can truly make a difference.

Praxis works alongside organizations to help them strengthen their internal processes, assess and improve policies, and foster a culture of survivor-centered advocacy. Enhancing organizational structures not only benefits survivors and their broader communities but also supports staff well-being, leading to more effective services.

Praxis believes that supporting advocates and service providers is crucial to ensuring survivors receive the best support at every turn. We provide multiple avenues for staff and managers to enhance their skills and knowledge. 

Advocates are essential to ending domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking. How to include a focus on survivor-staff/staff-survivors.
