SAVAS has been serving the Prince William Area community since 1983 providing assistance and support to victims of sexual assault and their families.
“SAVAS and the ACTS /Turning Points Domestic Violence Program have been working closely together in state and local coalitions for many years. This merger will maximize the community's resources while offering a full spectrum of services to victims of violence,” reads a press release from ACTS.
