The mission of Day One of RI is to reduce the prevalence of sexual abuse and violence, and to support and advocate for those affected by it. Day One's vision is to create a community that is free of sexual abuse and violence through leadership and action that is responsive to the needs of the community.
Day One provides services to victims of sexual assault, and other violent crimes through its four program areas: clinical services, advocacy, forensic interviews and case management of child sexual abuse, education and professional training. The agency is a partner in The Helpline, providing 24-hour statewide support and advocacy for victims of crime.
