The Sexual Assault Response Network of Central Ohio (SARNCO) is looking for women and men who want to truly make a difference in the community, excel at listening to the needs of others, and care about ending sexual and relationship violence in our community. SARNCO is the rape crisis intervention and prevention program for central Ohio.
