A forest is much more than just a couple of trees. It is a coordinated community of diverse trees that interact with one another to ensure strong growth and to build resiliency over time.   
  
In our effort to build a strong, coordinated response in the anti-violence movement, the Ohio Alliance to End Sexual Violence aims to learn from the forest and draw strength from our similarly diverse community of coalition members. We ask that you consider joining as a member and help GROW OUR COLLECTIVE. 

To renew your membership with OAESV, please complete the online application via OAESV’s Member Portal. To request a paper application to mail in, or for additional assistance, please email: info@oaesv.org or call our office phone: (216) 658-1381.

Rape Crisis Center Memberships have a set expiration date for February 15th, 2024 and must be renewed and paid in full by this date to keep active membership status and benefits.

How Can I Make an Impact? (Membership Tiers)

Individual Membership: Douglas Firs

$50/year

Douglas Firs are an evergreen conifer that have lots of different species in the pine family. They can vary in size between 40–330 feet and they keep their needle-like leaves year-round. Like the Douglas Fir, our individual members provide us amazing support year-round and each member brings a variety of knowledge and passion.

Affiliate Membership: The Maple Tree

$150 to $275 /year  

The Maple Tree is a medium sized tree, around 60-90 feet tall, and they occur in large numbers throughout the state. They can create maple sap and maple sugar which is an important agricultural resource for Ohio. Like the Maple Tree, our affiliate organizations provide personalized support across Ohio to survivors under their canopy, such as our child advocacy centers, domestic violence centers, or our culturally specific organizations.

Rape Crisis Center Membership: The American Sycamore

$175 to $700 /year

The American Sycamore, standing between 75-100 feet tall, not only commands a presence due to its height, but its massive trunk and network of branches. Like the Sycamore, our Rape Crisis Centers in Ohio stand tall with a strong foundation in our Core Rape Crisis Services and several branches of support services for our survivors of sexual violence.
