First State Clinic for Sexual Violence Survivors

Minneapolis is launching a groundbreaking clinic for sexual violence survivors — the first of its kind in the state, outside a hospital setting. Southside Community Health Services, with 50+ years of community care, is creating a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive space that offers everything from forensic exams to ongoing mental health support — all in one place. Designed to reduce re-traumatization and meet the needs of underserved communities, including Latino, African immigrant, Native, and LGBTQ+ populations, this clinic isn’t just healing bodies — it’s preventing long-term suffering like depression and chronic pain.
