“There has never been a more important time to support victims of domestic & sexual violence,” said Jennifer Hecker, executive director of Options. “One in four women and one in nine men experience severe intimate partner physical violence, sexual violence, and/or stalking in our country.” The Dinner Auction is a fun event that brings together people in our community who genuinely want to make a difference, raising thousands of dollars for our program that supports 18 counties in northwest Kansas.
Options provides confidential services free of charge to all victims. Options services are informed by victims and survivors and delivered through a trauma-informed approach. We take into account the impact that trauma can have and the barriers victims face when trying to recover from devastating violence.
