Call to Safety 24/7 crisis line | 503-235-5333
RIFS works with participants who are part of our immigrant and refugee communities and undocumented survivors.
Started in 1998, we are a culturally and linguistically specific program that provides holistic, culturally specific, trauma-informed intensive case management and wrap-around services to survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking who have been victimized in the last 6 months and live in the Portland Metro area and Ontario, OR.
RIFS Advocates are a lifeline for survivors as they flee from violence, recover from trauma, and rebuild their lives. Our team is multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, and multi-lingual and the staff speak a total of 21 languages. We are client centered and work with the community partners through outreach and collaboration to assist DV/SA/ST survivors.
RIFS serves participant survivors with a vast list of available resources ranging from safety planning and escape to legal support and court accompaniment, to emergency shelter and sustainable housing, language education and employment training, and many things in between. All participants and their accompanying children can make use of Survivor Services and all our services are free and confidential.
For referral, please contact the RIFS hotline: 503-445-1446
PPS Resources for Crisis or Emergency Support & Advocacy (updated Feb 2021)
Note: For male survivors: sexual assault can happen to anyone, no matter your age, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Men and boys who have been sexually assaulted or abused may have many of the same feelings and reactions as other survivors of sexual assault, but they may also face some additional challenges because of social attitudes and stereotypes about men and masculinity.
