Crisis Intervention Training

Stand Up Placer is a non-profit community-based organization dedicated to empowering Placer County survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking to heal from the trauma and create new lives of strength and self-sufficiency. We take pride in our community, engaging and inspiring Placer County residents to end the legacy of abuse.

Stand Up Placer began in 1974 as a grassroots, volunteer-led rape crisis line. Today, we are governed by a volunteer board of directors with paid staff members and volunteers working together to provide around-the-clock services to victims of abuse and their families.
