A. GOALS
(1) Nature of the Problem
According to Federal Bureau of Investigation statistics, rape is the fastest growing
crime of violence in the United States (Uniform Crime Reports, 1975). Although rape
is primarily considered to be a crime against women, men, too are often victims of
rape and are becoming so in increasing numbers. In the 1970's, as American society
continues in its move toward equality for all persons, the crime of rape has become
an increasingly important issue for persons in law enforcement, social services,
medicine, government, and jurisprudence.
One of the obstacles to dealing effectively with the problem 'of rape in a community
is the low reporting rate for the crime. The FBI has. estimated that 75- 90%.of rapes
which occur are never brought to the attention of law enforcement authorities.
Reported rapes in Corpus Christi for the period 1970 -1975 are as follows:
1970 .....55
1971......59
1972......77
1973......76
1974......83
1975......76
(Source: Coastal Bend Council of Governments' Criminal Justice Plan for 1976 and
Corpus Christi Police Department). Because of the low reporting rate for rape, how-
ever, these figures most likely do not reflect an accurate picture of the problem
of rape in the Corpus Christi community.
In order for law enforcement officials to perform their duty, of apprehending alleged
criminals and in order for prosecutors to bring alleged criminals to trial, crimes
which have been committed must be made known to the authorities. When victims begin
reporting rapes in greater numbers, the criminal justice system and the community
will experience an increase in rapists'. arrests, an increase in convictions for
rape, and hopefully a community -wide deterrent to the crime.
A need exists, therefore, for increased reporting of the crime of rape.
•

Page 4B
The subject of rape is commonly surrounded with mystery and fear. The service
delivery system for rape victims is often confusing and unfamiliar. Following a
rape, many victims make decisions for action based on faulty or misleading
information. This lack of information often can lead to a victim's not
receiving necessary medical and legal attention. In order for a rape victim
to receive necessary care and treatment, her /his movement within the present
service delivery system needs to be facilitated.
The community needs to be assured, therefore, that victims of rape will move
through the service delivery system with minimum effort while obtaining
maximum needed services.
The Corpus Christi Rape Crisis Center addresses the above needs through its
two- pronged program of direct aid to rape victims and public education for
the cormunity at large.
(2) Target Groups
The Corpus Christi Rape Crisis Center offers support services to all victims of
rape, attempted rape, and other crimes of a sexual nature (e. g., sexual abuse,
indecent exposure). The Center's program is designed primarily for female
victims of rape, although male victims will be served if the situation arises.
Public education, including rape prevention, is aimed at the total community
(Corpus Christi and nearby areas) -- male and female, all ages, all ethnic groups.
(3) Goals and Objectives
GOAL I: Increase the reporting of rape and attempted rape to local authorities.
Objective: In 1977, increase the number of reported rapes to 105, 40% more
than those reported in 1975;
GOAL II: Lessen the physical and emotional trauma experienced by women as a
result of rape.
Objective: In 1977, provide personal support services to 10 rape victims per
month.
B. METHODS
(1) Provide 24 -hour telephone hotline staffed by trained volunteers.
(2) On request, send pair of volunteers to accompany a recent rape victim to
hospital and /or police.
(3) Accompany victim through court process should she decide to file charges
and should the case go to trial.
(4) Provide long term follow -up by volunteer trained in listening and communication
skills.
(5) Refer clients to appropriate medical, legal, and psychological
services within the community.
(6) Sponsor "rap" groups for rape victims.
(7) Educate the public on the facts of rape and its prevention by speaking
to churches, schools, and civic groups; providing information to news
media; and disseminating pertinent literature to the community.
C. RESOURCES
The City of Corpus Christi will continue its present contract with the
Crisis Intervention Service, Inc. for program operation. The Rape Crisis
Center and its Director will function under the auspices of the Board of
Directors of the Crisis Intervention Service.
History of Corpus Christi Rape Crisis Center (CCRCC)
CCRCC began in February, 1976 with the hiring of a Director. During the first
month of operation, the Director inventoried agencies and personnel in the
Corpus Christi area which offer services to victims of rape. The Director
began to coordinate these resources into an organized service delivery system
for rape victims and their families. The Corpus Christi Police Department,
Memorial Medical Center, and District Attorney's Office -- each one a vital
part of the service delivery system -- have begun to work together to the
benefit of the rape victim. Other agencies within the community which have
supported CCRCC in its first year of operation include Mueces County Mental
Health and dental Retardation Community Center, Family Counseling Service,
State Department of Public Welfare, Women's Political Caucus, Hueces County
Medical Society, Coastal Bend Council of Governments, and County -City Health
Department.
Also during February, CCRCC and Crisis Intervention Service began a joint pub-
licity campaign to recruit volunteers to staff a 24 -hour telephone hotline and
to render aid to victims in crisis. In March, CCRCC conducted its first
training series for volunteers. (Training was conducted jointly with Crisis
Intervention Service.) Training consisted of ten, three hour sessions which
included the teaching of active listening skills, crisis intervention theory,
and rape counseling by telephone. Guest speakers also instructed volunteers
in the role of police and medical personnel in rape cases, specific medical
procedures relevant to rape victims, legal aspects of rape and the role of
legal professionals.
Approximately 40 persons completed training and were accepted for volunteer
service. CCRCC's 24 -hour hotline is staffed and operated jointly with the
existing hotline of Crisis Intervention Service. At the end of March, new
volunteers were working practice shifts on the hotline supervised by experienced
Crisis Intervention Service volunteers. To avoid duplication of service and
confusion in the community, it was decided that CCRCC would share the same
phone number with the already established Crisis Intervention Service.

Since April, CCRCC has conducted an on -going publicity campaign, using all
forms of media, to acquaint the community with the new agency and its services.
CCRCC has received a great amount of support and aid from local media (TV, radio,
newspaper) and other community resources involved in advertising and publicity.
By agreement with the Corpus Christi Police Department, CCRCC is informed of
each rape reported to the police. Volunteers are dispatched to render aid to
these victims. In addition to referrals from the police, CCRCC receives
referrals from Memorial Medical Center, social service agencies in the community,
and rape victims themselves.• Calls per month 'have risen as *foll61s-
February . . . 2 June• . . . •B
March .2 July• . . . 12
April. 7 August. . . 19
May......7
The public information campaign conducted by CCRCC has been very well received
community -wide. In the first seven months of the program, the Director and /or
Speakers Bureau volunteers presented 36 programs reaching a total of 2,350
persons. Persons reached by dissemination of information through media sources
cannot be quantified. Public response, however, can be estimated by the
continually increasing number of calls to the hotline and the increase in
requests for public speakers.
Special activities planned for FY1977 (time schedule not yet definite) include
(1) rape prevention month in Corpus Christi, (2) seminars for ministers,
beauticians, and lounge personnel, and (3) survey of recent jurors' attitudes
regarding rape and the criminal justice system.
The Corpus Christi Rape Crisis Center is still in its development stage. At
this point, it is too early to detect a significant increase in the reporting
of rape community -wide. Likewise, more victims need to be assisted through
the service delivery system _before the process can become adequately accessible,
streamlined, and responsive. The foundation for a successful program has
been laid. CCRCC needs at least one additional year of secure funding to
become fully functional and established as a viable agency in the community.
Staff of CCRCC
In this FY1977 funding application, the salary for only one staff member,
the Director, is being requested. Secretarial /bookkeeping duties will
be performed by volunteers.
The present Director of CCRCC, Connie Fowler, will continue in that position
during FY1977. Ms. Fowler was previously employed as a planner by the Deep
East Texas Council of Governments. She has experience in the planning of
social service programs (aging, drug abuse, health) and community development.
She has a Master of Public Health degree.

Continuation Funding Plan
At the conclusion of CJD funding, the Rape Crisis Center will
remain an on -going service in the Corpus Christi community.
Operating costs, both cash and in -kind, will be sought from
local sources. The Rape-Crisis Center is still in its develop-
ment stages, therefore, a detailed budget and funding sources for
third year operation cannot be specified at this time. Merger with
an existing community agency and /or tapping of local foundation
resources are highly probable avenues of project continuation.
