Sexual Trauma Services of the Midlands

A real person, with a name and a face and a family, calls STSM every single day. It could be you. And if it’s not you, it’s someone like you.

STSM is a private, non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization, incorporated in 1983. One of 16 rape crisis centers in South Carolina, STSM provides crisis intervention, advocacy, and support services to female and male child, adolescent, and/or adult survivors of sexual assault and abuse in Richland, Lexington, and Newberry counties and education about sexual trauma issues.

The STSM family includes a volunteer Board of Directors comprised of 8-16 individuals residing and working in the agency’s service area, nine full time employees, two paid graduate assistants, two master’s level interns, and an army of volunteers.
