New Milwaukee clinic opens for victims of sexual assault and domestic violence

 

Milwaukee (CBS 58) -- There's a new place where victims of sexual assault and domestic violence can get more access to any treatment they need.

Aurora Healthcare just opened the new clinic at Aurora Siani. The clinic combines three departments so staff can offer counseling, treatment, and therapy in a more private setting.

"The benefit is just a more streamlined approach for someone that has experienced something traumatic in their lives that now they're not having to piece things together themselves, but we can offer those services to them," said Sharian Horn, Director of Aurora Healing & Advocacy Services. 

The clinic was made possible with a grant from the Department of Justice.

Aurora Healthcare says the clinic will help more than 700 victims a year.
