Project
Horizon is dedicated to reducing domestic, dating, and sexual violence in
the Lexington, Buena Vista, and Rockbridge County area through crisis
intervention services and prevention programs. This non-profit
agency
began
in 1982 as a grass roots effort to provide confidential services free of
charge to battered women in the Rockbridge County area. In 1996, the agency
merged with the Rockbridge Area Coalition Against Sexual Assault (RACASA)
and began providing services to victims of domestic, dating, and sexual
violence.
Through its direct services to
clients and outreach programs, Project Horizon offers survivors a 24-hour hotline (463-2594), emergency shelter, crisis intervention, counseling, applicable referrals, and court advocacy. In addition, the agency provides training to allied professionals to improve services to victims of violence. The agency also presents prevention programs in schools on topics such as sexual harassment, sexual assault and dating violence. The agency has 12 staff members, a 12 member Board of Directors, and 100 volunteers! If you are interested in volunteering or for more information on the agency's services, please contact the office at 463-7861.
