Over the past several years,<br \/>\nhowever, it was discovered that rather than provide kits, it would make more\u00a0sense to provide not only clothing but journals, bottled water, tissue packs,<br \/>\nstress balls and other items suggested by Stand Up Placer, an organization dedicated to saving lives by empowering survivors and educating communities to stand up to domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking.<\/p>\n<p>Besides adding to the items originally provided, the program underwent another\u00a0change in 2018 when its name was changed to Support for Assault Survivors.<br \/>\nThis took place after several discussions with Stand Up Placer representatives.\u00a0\u00a0It was determined, Assistance League could better serve a need in our<br \/>\ncommunities by including support for not only victims of sexual assault, but also\u00a0victims of domestic violence and human trafficking. Now the supplies, given to<br \/>\nStand Up Placer, can be used for any type of assault victims. In addition, this\u00a0committee is providing needed supplies for use in a safe house, and putting<br \/>\ntogether gift baskets for victims moving from the Safe House to an apartment or\u00a0home.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;6737&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;6736&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A gift basket is provided for victims leaving the Placer Stand Up Safe House to move into an apartment or house.\u00a0 This includes pots and pans, utensils, dishes, trash bags, and other household items including a picture frame for a new family photograph.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] SUPPORT ASSAULT SURVIVORS Assault Survivor Kits\u00ae originated in 1991 in Auburn, California, introduced by Lee\u00a0Ann Greer, a member of our Assistance League chapter.\u00a0 Other chapters across\u00a0the United States have successfully adopted this program.\u00a0\u00a0The original program provided new clothing and essential hygiene items to victims so they could leave the hospital in a dignified manner [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3064","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.assistanceleague.org\/greater-placer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3064","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.assistanceleague.org\/greater-placer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.assistanceleague.org\/greater-placer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.assistanceleague.org\/greater-placer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.assistanceleague.org\/greater-placer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3064"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.assistanceleague.org\/greater-placer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3064\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6745,"href":"https:\/\/www.assistanceleague.org\/greater-placer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3064\/revisions\/6745"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.assistanceleague.org\/greater-placer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3064"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
