Stand Up Placer, Inc.

Stand Up Placer is dedicated to the empowerment of Placer County survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and sex trafficking as they heal from their trauma and create lives of strength and self-sufficiency.  Incorporated in 1978, we have grown over the past four decades, providing services under a number of different names and in 2012, adopted a new name, which is also our call to action: Stand Up Placer.

Today, we are Placer County's primary provider of comprehensive services to survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and sex trafficking and their children, and their families.  Stand Up Placer serves over 4,000 people annually. Most survivors receive help at the Roseville Service Office. The Safe House and Housing Programs provide emergency shelter and housing services to the most vulnerable victims. Placer County continues to see a sharp rise in services provided to survivors. Domestic violence, sexual assault and sex trafficking cross all cultural and ethnic barriers.  Survivors come from all walks of life, and they range in age from infants to seniors.

Stand Up Placer provides a comprehensive array of services that help survivors to determine and achieve their own goals.  Our major services include a 24-hour crisis line, emergency safe house, emergency food and clothing, individual, family, child and group therapy, case management, legal, social services and employer advocacy, assistance, and accompaniment, transitional housing program, and rapid rehousing program.  Survivors who do not require emergency shelter access services at our Roseville office.  We operate the Rape Crisis Center for Placer County, providing hospital accompaniment, advocacy, support and follow up for sexual assault victims through the Sexual Assault Response Team (SART).  In 2016, Stand Up Placer became a triple agency with the addition of our Human Trafficking Victim Assistance Program.  In 2019, we added a Legal Assistance Program to assist survivors who need the help of an attorney.  To help create a stronger, safer community, we provide community education for local schools, workplaces, and community organizations.
