About This Cause
Raksha is a Georgia non profit focused on helping community members heal from violence and trauma they experienced, engaging the community and helping clients access justice . A large part of our work is addressing domestic and sexual violence, crime victimization and access to culturally and linguistically appropriate counseling/healing. Raksha’s general direct services include crisis intervention, information and referrals, interpretation and translation, legal and general advocacy, individual and family counseling with children and adults encompassing a variety of issues facing the South Asian community. In addition to these services, we participated in a variety of community building and economic empowerment initiatives.
