SUMMARY:CenLA Open House and Community Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:Dear Community Members\, \nWe’re excited to invite you to “Calling All STARs: A Community Open House & Fundraiser\,” an opportunity to connect\, contribute\, and help empower sexual assault survivors in Central Louisiana. The event will take place at STAR’s Central Louisiana office\, and we would be honored to have your presence and support. \nTour. Donate. Empower.\nThis isn’t just a fundraiser\, it’s an open invitation to see firsthand the impact of our work. At STAR\, we provide free\, trauma-focused therapy delivered by licensed clinicians to both adults and children\, regardless of system involvement. We also offer case management\, emergency financial assistance\, and free legal representation to survivors of sexual trauma. From July 1\, 2024 to June 30\, 2025\, our Central Louisiana staff of three full-time and one part-time employees provided 5\,846 services to survivors. \nUnfortunately\, like many service providers\, we’ve been impacted by significant grant funding cuts this year. Despite this\, the need for our services continues to grow. Your support can help ensure that survivors continue to receive the critical\, compassionate care they deserve. \nWe are asking community members\, businesses\, and partners to get involved in the following ways: \n\nAttend our open house\, take a tour\, and learn more about what we do.\nDonate to sponsor vital services for survivors in the coming year.\nContribute refreshments or door prizes to help make this event welcoming and successful.\nSpread the word to others who care about building a safer\, more healing-centered community.\n\nYour donation funds the critical services survivors in Central Louisiana count on. Whether it’s a survivor needing transportation to an appointment\, a child receiving legal representation for a protection order\, or a parent receiving group therapy\, your contribution makes healing\, safety\, and justice possible. \nWe hope you’ll answer the call and join us. Together\, we can continue building a community free from sexual trauma and oppression. \nWith gratitude\, \nMorgan Lamandre\, Esq.\nPresident & CEO

SUMMARY:Office Closed - Summer Break
DESCRIPTION:Sexual Trauma Awareness & Response (STAR) will be closed from Tuesday\, July 2nd to Sunday\, July 7th in observance of Summer Break. \nResearch suggests over half of all sexual trauma response practitioners experience stress symptoms and high levels of compassion fatigue. The mental health benefits of taking a short pause from sexual trauma advocacy work provide an opportunity to improve psychological well-being\, recalibrate work-life balance\, and act as a protective factor against burnout. During this time dedicated to individual development and reflection\, the 24/7 hotline will still be available if you need support: 855-435-7827. \nAdditional resources available during STAR’s summer break are as follows: \n\nRAINN: (Rape\, Abuse & Incest National Network) is the nation’s largest anti-sexual violence organization. RAINN created and operates the National Sexual Assault Hotline (800.656.HOPE (4673)\, online.rainn.org y rainn.org/es)\n2-1-1: The Louisiana Statewide Network is a confidential\, free resource connecting callers to information about critical health and human services available in their communities.\n9-8-8: The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (formerly known as the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline) provides 24/7 free and confidential emotional support to people in suicidal crisis or emotional distress.\nLouisiana Coalition Against Domestic Violence (LCADV): https://lcadv.org/ 1-888-411-1333 is the federally designated statewide coalition of shelters\, non-residential programs and individuals working to end domestic violence in Louisiana.\nLouisiana Foundation Against Sexual Assault (LaFASA): https://www.lafasa.org/ 1-888-995-7273. LaFASA offers free and confidential support statewide to survivors and their loved ones. Connect with an on-call Crisis Specialist to discuss your current circumstance and talk about next steps that can be taken towards safety and healing.\n\n  \nSTAR Offices will reopen for business on Monday\, July 8th with a recharged and recovered staff ready to return to our profession with renewed energy and motivation to support survivors of sexual trauma\, improve systems response\, and create social change to end sexual violence. \n
