The California Office of Emergency Services has cut funding to programs for survivors and MCRCC is working hard to replace this loss. The initial budget reduction of $129,000 took effect on 10/01/2026, with a second taking place on 10/01/2027. Operating with a reduced budget and capacity could mean increasingly limited support and fewer resources for survivors. This reduction might also limit our ability to provide free training and presentations that are fundamental to preventing sexual violence in our community. Survivors of sexual assault, human trafficking, and child abuse cannot have a decrease in essential services. The Monterey County Rape Crisis Center (MCRCC) is a nonprofit committed to providing advocacy, support, and healing for survivors of sexual assault, human trafficking, and child abuse, while working to prevent sexual violence in our community through education.
