About Texas Association Against Sexual Assault
Texas Association Against Sexual Assault Inc functions as Texas’s statewide coalition for survivors, advocates, rape crisis centers, and allied professionals, and its grantmaking is built around that role. The organization channels federal and pass-through support into direct services, primary prevention, and capacity building for sexual assault programs across the state. In the recent grants list, Dallas Area Rape Crisis received $350,810, while The Turning Point-RCC Collin received $338,853, showing the scale of support directed to local service providers. Other awards reached culturally specific and community-based organizations such as Saheli Asian Family Support, which received $335,125, and Women’s Ctr Tarrant County, which received $326,951. The pattern reflects an intermediary funder that strengthens the network around survivors rather than funding individuals. Its published focus areas include survivor support and advocacy, training and professional development, grants administration, men’s engagement, Sexual Assault Response Teams, and survivor leadership and advisory work, all tied to sexual violence prevention in Texas.
What Texas Association Against Sexual Assault Funds
A major thread in the foundation’s work is direct survivor services. Dallas Area Rape Crisis received $350,810 for sexual assault victim services, and Saheli Asian Family Support received $335,125 for culturally specific support. The grants also reach organizations serving border and rural communities, including Safer Path Family Violence Shelter at $253,647 and Abigail’s Arms Cooke County at $126,620. Prevention and training are another core area: the foundation supports RPE-funded rape crisis centers through SAPCS training and technical assistance, with emphasis on primary prevention, program planning, implementation, and youth leadership in prevention. It also administers SASP and ARP-SA pass-through funding to expand remote services, hospital accompaniment, mobile advocacy, and emergency survivor support. Across these programs, the emphasis is on strengthening provider capacity as much as direct service delivery.
How Texas Association Against Sexual Assault Gives
