The Indiana Coalition Against Sexual Assault (INCASA) believes that sexual assault is a violent crime of power and domination that can be perpetrated against all persons, and that the healing of victims cannot be separated from the healing of society. INCASA is part of that society, and it recognizes that it must continually reassess its own attitudes and consciousness.
Our Purpose
INCASA views itself as an organization working toward the elimination of sexual assault and realizes that its most important goal must be to achieve its own non-existence.
Our Vision
Pursuing the eradication of sexual violence in Indiana.
Our Mission
INCASA exists to provide education, advocacy, and support to professionals, communities, and survivors regarding sexual violence in Indiana.
Company Profile
In April 1986, thirty people from throughout Indiana gathered in Indianapolis to address the needs of victims of rape statewide and to network with other service providers by sharing experiences, knowledge and resources. That first meeting, initiated by Sex Offense Services, South Bend, became the impetus for INCASA. Later meetings produced goals, by-laws, membership requirements, dues, and in 1987, the Coalition incorporated. INCASA is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization in good standing with the Secretary of State.
