Mission
The Arizona Sexual Assault Network (AzSAN) is a 501 (C) 3 nonprofit operating in
partnership with the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Violence Against
Women and the Valley of the Sun United Way.
Our mission is to identify and
address sexual violence issues through a collaborative statewide network.
Vision
To achieve a society free from sexual violence, AzSAN functions as a collective
voice to reduce the threat and mitigate the effects of sexual assault in our
state. Action
AzSAN coordinates and supports a multidisciplinary approach to service for
sexual assault victims and survivors, advocates, educators, service providers
and other professionals. Background
Founded in 1998, AzSAN was born out of Arizona's great need for a statewide
sexual assault coalition. The organization was incorporated in 1999, and is
currently headquartered in central Phoenix. We have one full-time staff member,
a Board of Directors, dedicated volunteers and a growing membership of
individuals and organizations. We continue to work on increasing our capacity so
that we may adequately serve the entire state of Arizona.
