Our approach

The mission of the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre is to prevent the harm and heal the trauma of rape and other forms of sexual violence. In line with this mission, our approach in education and training is trauma informed with the victim/survivor always the focus. Our training is invitational and our courses designed to maximise participation. Our methodology includes information inputs, groups discussion, role play and case history.
