Sexual violence can have devastating impacts on its survivors. Victims of sexual abuse often suffer from severe depression, dissociative disorders, substance use disorders, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). If left untreated, these conditions can lead to significant suffering psychologically, emotionally, economically, and socially.  In the United States, it is estimated that 56% of individuals don’t receive this very necessary mental health treatment, and of those left untreated, 50% reported the inability to pay for the high costs.

Founded in 1992, Survivors of Abuse in Recovery, Inc. (SOAR) is dedicated to providing professional mental health services to children, adolescents, and adult victims of sexual trauma and their families regardless of their ability to pay. SOAR, Inc. is the ONLY nonprofit organization in our region which offers these services regardless of the financial situation of the family. It is imperative for SOAR, Inc. to maintain this mission in order to continue to offer this very specialized service.

                                                          You can join us in this mission!

As active leaders in the mental health field, supporting advocacy, education, and raising awareness of the devastating impacts of sexual violence against children, adolescents, adult survivors, we are seeking opportunities to raise funds that can allow families access to affordable care. With the rising costs of health insurance, from unmanageable co-pays to extremely high deductibles, many individuals seeking relief from the distress related to sexual trauma, find difficulty finding the care they need. SOAR, Inc. aims to solve this issue the help of donors and funding opportunities that allow SOAR, Inc. to be effective in leading quality trauma informed care. 

                                                             
                                                            Here is how you can help!

SOAR started as a small Wilmington based therapy program for adult victims of sexual trauma. In nearly 25 years it has grown into a statewide program providing individual, family and group therapy to child, teen and adult victims of sexual trauma as well as programs for secondary victims (non-offending family members). As a leader in the field, we provide education, advocacy, and professional development for our survivors.

SOAR's recovery services include individual, family and group psychotherapy services designed to help victims of all ages recover from the sex crimes that have been committed against them. More than 2,000 adults, adolescents, children, and their families residing in Delaware and the surrounding counties in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland utilize SOAR’s services annually.
