ABOUT US
The reporting of abuse cases and treatment is provided during duty hours by the Department of Behavior Medicine, Lyster Hospital 334-255-7029. When spouse abuse occurs, the Victim Advocate Program offers the victim "lay support" or assistance that involves the full spectrum of the victim's experience from reporting to resolution or emotional recovery. The following services are just a few ways our volunteers and staff assist:
Have you or someone you have known been sexually assaulted?
| Sexual violence hurts victims and all of the people who care about them. Sexual violence impacts survivors’ health, their emotions, and their day-to-day lives. Talking to someone who cares can help make a difference. Hotline support, individual counseling, advocacy services and support groups can help you. If you are a military member or dependent & need help, or for more information contact a Fort Rucker Victim Advocate: (334) 255-7029, (334) 255-9644, or (334) 255-9636.

What We Offer

Reporting, Identification and Treatment
By regulation, the primary focus of the FAP staff at ACS is education and prevention. This doesn't mean, however, that treatment issues are neglected. Reporting, identification and treatment of child and spouse abuse are handled by the Family Advocacy Program professionals working within the Department of Behavior Medicine (DBM). The FAP Treatment Supervisor and the FAP Manager at ACS work closely to provide the Fort Rucker community with a comprehensive program addressing all aspects of the issues surrounding family violence.
