HARRISBURG—The Pennsylvania Coalition Against Rape does not support the use of at-home rape kits following a sexual assault.
After an assault, it is important survivors consider seeking medical attention and understand the potential risks associated with the use of at-home kits.
HARRISBURG—The Pennsylvania Coalition Against Rape is grateful for the Rape Crisis increase in the General Assembly’s 2019-20 spending plan. We applaud members of the House and Senate for prioritizing funding for victims of sexual harassment, abuse, and assault and Gov. Tom Wolf for his ongoing commitment to campus sexual assault prevention through the It’s on Us campaign.
The 10% increase—approximately $900 thousand of the $34-billion state budget—was signed by Gov. Wolf today.
