The Rowan Center-A Sexual Assault Resource Agency

We're here for you. The only sexual assault resource agency serving Darien, Greenwich, New Canaan, N

The Rowan Center began in a trailer behind Stamford hospital, started by a group of volunteers who wanted to help victims of sexual violence. 40 years later, we are an agency of professionals working to help victims and survivors through crises, and delivering prevention education to nearly 20,000 people a year. All of our services are available in English, Spanish, and Haitian-Creole and are free of charge. Our services include: 24-hour crisis hotlines, individual crisis counseling, support/empowerment groups, advocacy, community prevention education, and volunteer opportunities. For more information on our services, don't hesitate to reach out to us.

The truth is stark: Domestic and sexual violence often go hand in hand—and 40–45% of women in abusive relationships are also sexually assaulted (CDC). No one should face that alone.

Whether you call our hotline, join a support group, or get help through medical or legal processes, we’re here to walk with you through your healing journey.

💜 If you or a loved one has experienced sexual violence, free, confidential counseling is available in English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole.

📞 You are not alone. Support is just a call or click away. Learn more at therowancenter.org/what-we-do/crisis-counseling/
