    For persons in the Bay Area who are dealing with the trauma of a recent sexual assault, and the countless others who are only now beginning to deal with the aftermath of an earlier assault, BAWAR offers experienced counseling and advocacy 24-hours per day. For the survivor they have a listener who will not judge, criticize, or be easily shocked.
