Support Our Mission
Every donation helps NMCSAP provide crisis support, prevention programs, and advocacy for survivors across all 33 counties of New Mexico. Together, we can build safer communities and ensure no one faces sexual violence alone.
The 2026 Legislative Session has ended.
We are proud of the wins we were able to accomplish with our many partners and through the fierce leadership of survivors. We remain motivated to return next year to continue fighting for the initiatives that didn’t pass and promoting accountability, justice, and healing for survivors of sexual abuse and assault.
Here is where the priorities of The NM Survivors’ Agenda stand.
We entered the 2026 session seeking $2 million to maintain essential services.
Sexual assault services received $1 million in recurring funding from the House which remained in the budget all the way through! This is a HUGE win and will help ensure services have sustainable funding year after year.
Services were also appropriated $660k in one-time member directed GRO funding for sexual assault services.
We will work hard to continue expanding and maintaining access for survivors. If you would like to support our work, please consider donating.

Consent is the foundation of healthy relationships. It means everyone involved actively agrees to participate and has the freedom and capacity to make that decision. Consent cannot be assumed, pressured, or forced. It cannot be given by someone who is unable to make an informed choice like someone who is unconscious or intoxicated to the point of not being able to make decisions.
Sexual violence affects people of every age, race, gender, sexual orientation, ability, culture, and community. No one deserves to experience sexual violence and help is available.

Understanding consent is key to understanding sexual violence. Consent means every person freely, knowingly, and voluntarily agrees to participate in a specific activity. Consent should be clear, mutual, and ongoing. And it can be withdrawn at any time.
Everyone involved has a responsibility to ensure there is consent before and throughout any sexual activity.
Building a culture of consent means creating communities where respect, communication, and healthy boundaries are valued. It shifts the focus away from questioning survivors and toward ensuring everyone takes responsibility for respecting another person’s choices.
Healthy relationships are built on trust, respect, communication, and consent. Whether it’s a romantic relationship, friendship, or another important relationship in your life, you deserve to feel safe, respected, and valued.
Healthy relationships aren’t perfect, but they are built on mutual care, honesty, and respect for one another’s boundaries and individuality.

NMCSAP collects data about the impact of sexual violence, service provision, and community needs by utilizing a statewide data collection tool contributed to by all state funded SA programs, conducting statewide needs assessments, and through ongoing taskforce and stakeholder meetings.
Additionally, in 2024, NMCSAP conducted the first NM Crime Victimization Survey in twenty years in partnership with the Catherine Cutler Institute and American Indian Development Associates. The purpose of the New Mexico Crime Victimization Survey was to understand the extent of criminal victimization, crime reporting, and assistance seeking for four types of crime (stalking, rape, sexual assault, and domestic violence) and to identify differences in rates between demographic groups. The findings offer a critical opportunity to address cycles of violence and invest in comprehensive solutions that prioritize safety and healing for all people in New Mexico.
