Mission: Vera House, Inc. prevents, responds to and partners to end domestic and sexual violence and other forms of abuse. On January 1, 2005, two agencies with similar missions, the Rape Crisis Center & Vera House became one merging their programs and staff in order to provide the same quality services. . . “together for hope and healing.” The merged Vera House, Inc. continues over a 40-year tradition of quality service to the Central New York community. The mission statement reflects the history of both merged agencies. Rape Crisis Center was founded in 1974 by committed volunteers who saw the need for crisis, support and advocacy services for adult rape survivors. This mission grew over the years to include services for child victims of sexual assault and their families, preventive education programming and a team of nurses who provide 24-hour response for victims of sexual assault. Vera House was founded in 1977 by a group of concerned individuals led by Sister Mary Vera, CSJ who recognized the need for emergency sheltering services for women in crisis. This original mission blossomed into a wide range of domestic violence services including outreach and advocacy, domestic violence education programming, children's counseling, and a domestic violence education and accountability program for people who cause harm in relationships.
