While we’re away, our 24/7 crisis hotline remains open to support anyone in need: (540) 434-2272.

In observance of Juneteenth, our office will be closed on Thursday, June 19. If you need support, our 24/7 crisis hotline remains available for talk and text at (540) 434-2272.

We recognize that the legacy of racial injustice continues to impact the experiences of Black survivors of sexual violence and child abuse. Barriers to safety, healing, and justice persist. Honoring Juneteenth means acknowledging those truths—and recommitting to building services and systems that are equitable, trauma-informed, and rooted in dignity. Freedom is not just the absence of violence and harm; it is the presence of safety, voice, and healing. We stand with all survivors and continue working toward a future where no one is silenced or left behind.

✨ We're hiring! Join the Collins Center team. ✨
We're looking for two bilingual professionals to support survivors and lead prevention education in our community:

These are full-time, salaried roles (with benefits) based in Harrisonburg, VA and with some travel to Luray, VA.

Both positions require professional proficiency in English and Spanish.

Neither position requires the applicant to have completed formal advocacy or forensic interviewing training.
