What Prairie Center Against Sexual Assault does
Mission
Prairie center has a two-fold purpose: to alleviate the suffering of sexual assault victims and to prevent sexual violence. We assist men, women, children and families through the trauma of sexual violence by providing crisis intervention, medical advocacy and trauma counseling. Prairie center advocates for victim rights in the law enforcement and criminal justice systems. Our prevention education programs focus on reducing the likelihood of sexual victimization, particularly in the lives of children and adolescents. Diversity, equity, and social justice are core values of our organization. Pcasa is committed to advancing racial justice.

The organization over time

Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $342k to $478k (+40%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 89% · 2018 94% · 2019 96% · 2020 95% · 2021 93% · 2022 93% · 2023 95% · 2024 95% · 2025 97%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
