Basic Needs -- Child and teen victims of sexual assault and
physical abuse often need personal hygiene items.  The
Junior League of Abilene provided funding to help us stock the
shelves at the Abilene/Taylor County Child Advocacy Center,
where one of our counselors works with child victims and their
non-offending family members.
