An important announcement from WOAR’s Executive Director, Dr. Monique Howard.

The Philadelphia Special Victims Unit – the place you go to file a report if you’ve been sexually assaulted, will be closed for the next few days. 

If you or someone you know has been raped, please call the WOAR hotline to get information on where to go to file a report. Call (215) 985-3333. Our Sexual Assault counselors are available 24-hours. Or feel free to call 911. 

We will update you as more information is available. 

Thank you,
Dr. Monique Howard

WOAR counseled me and empowered me. What was done to me – what is done to any survivor – it takes power away from them. What WOAR does is give you the power back. WOAR is my family. They made a change in me and in countless others.
