BRAVE Bay Area, co-founded by Oleta Abrams, was a pioneering nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting survivors of sexual violence, establishing the nation's first rape crisis center in 1971. With a legacy of innovation and advocacy, the organization became an international model, providing critical services and raising awareness about the needs of sexual assault survivors.

Under the leadership of figures like Marcia Blackstock, BRAVE Bay Area transformed the criminal justice response to sexual violence, providing counseling, advocacy, and education to countless individuals. As it prepares to close permanently, the organization reflects on its profound impact and the enduring courage of the survivors it served.
