FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

Across South Dakota a silent crisis is unfolding. Our recent community listening session has revealed a stark reality that demands immediate attention and action. The victim service agencies that form the backbone of support for survivors of sexual, relational, and family trauma are facing a funding emergency that threatens their very existence.

In honor of World Mental Health Day 2024, The Compass Center shines a light on an often-overlooked aspect of mental health in victim-serving organizations: the impact of secondary trauma on staff. Discover how our innovative approach to self-care and risk management is transforming workplace wellness and enhancing client care. Plus, learn about our upcoming Spring 2025 conference that will continue this crucial conversation.
