Our wish?
A world free from sexual violence.
We counsel victims and survivors as they process their experiences of sexual violence from the past, we advocate for them as they navigate the circumstances of the present, and we educate our communities to prevent sexual violence in the future.
The Trauma Recovery Clinic is Now Open!
All survivors of trauma deserve hope and healing.
The Trauma Recovery Clinic (TRC) at The Rowan Center offers long-term, trauma-informed clinical therapy to help survivors of trauma heal. We are currently serving trauma victims and survivors on the HUSKY health insurance plan. Clients must be at least 18 years old.
Join us at Gingerbread Houses and Cocktails for a Cause as we raise essential funds to sustain and expand our programs. Your generosity will help ensure we can continue to protect and empower our communities—one survivor at a time.

Join us in protecting our community’s children
Our mission is clear: we counsel survivors and victims as they heal from the past, advocate for them in the present, and educate communities to prevent sexual violence in the future.
For over 40 years, we’ve been doing this work in Greenwich, Darien, Stamford, Norwalk, and beyond, thanks to supporters like you. We need your help to expand our services—especially for children who are at risk now more than ever.
When you make a gift today, you ensure that we can continue providing free crisis counseling for children and offer the education they need to stay safe. Your support empowers us to make a lasting impact in the lives of children and their families.
All of our services are available free of charge to individuals of all genders, including those who are cisgender, transgender, and non-binary, 10 and up, and are available in English and Spanish. Our counseling is available in Haitian-Creole.
Counseling
We respect the right of each person to choose their own path in the healing process. We offer free individual counseling sessions to primary and secondary victims of sexual violence, ages 14+, in English, Spanish and Haitian-Creole.
Education
It is part of our mission to eliminate sexual violence in as many ways as possible. Our education curriculum is designed from the knowledge that education and awareness can prevent and/or reduce sexual violence in our communities.
Volunteering
Our volunteers are at the heart of the work we do at The Rowan Center. Volunteers can make a difference by working directly with clients on our 24-hour hotline, tabling at community awareness fairs, or helping in our office or at fundraising events.
