谢谢

As we wrap up 2026, I want to take a moment to say thank you.

This was our 50th anniversary year, and I’ve been thinking about all the people who made these five decades possible. Whether you’ve been part of KCSARC’s mission for many years or got involved this year, you are part of that story.

Because of you, someone can call our 24-hour Resource Line and talk to someone who will listen. Survivors can access therapy, legal advocacy, and help figuring out their next steps. Families can find support when they need it most. Young people can learn about healthy relationships, consent, and boundaries. And adults in our community can learn how to identify, respond and stop sexual abuse.

None of this happens without you, and all of us at KCSARC are so thankful.

While the need for these services remains significant, and the funding environment has been challenging, there is a lot to be excited about. We continue to find new ways to reach people, strengthen our community partnerships, and make prevention a bigger part of the conversation. And most importantly: our community keeps showing up.

When I think about what becomes possible with you by our side, I am hopeful. I think about a future where young people grow up understanding healthy relationships and consent, where survivors know they will be believed and supported, and where fewer people experience sexual violence in the first place. That’s the future we’re building together.

值此感恩之际，我惦记着你们每一个人。感谢你们与幸存者站在一起，感谢你们为建设更安全的社区所做的贡献。我由衷地感谢你们，也对我们未来几年携手共创的成就充满期待。.
