Sexual Violence Law Center
The Sexual Violence Law Center (SVLC) is a nonprofit law firm that seeks to improve the legal response to survivors of sexual violence. Our advocacy is based in race and gender equity principles. SVLC is the only legal aid program of its kind in Washington, providing holistic legal assistance and representation exclusively to victims of sexual violence, assault, abuse, harassment and stalking. Our Approach SVLC seeks to break and reshape the legal system that has upheld rape culture, victim blaming and gender-based violence, building our work on the shoulders of giants like Kimberle Crenshaw, Anita Hill, Christine Blasey Ford, Sarah Deer, and Tarana Burke. Instead of working on only one legal issue, we provide holistic legal services, meaning we address all the survivor’s legal needs as a consequence of the sexual violence.
