The Sexual Assault Support Service (SASS) is a community based  service for survivors of sexual assault, in Hobart, Tasmania (Australia). It is based on the belief that sexual assault is an abuse of power and a crime. SASS is committed to the provision of a high quality service that empowers survivors of sexual assault, as well as working towards the elimination of sexual violence. SASS provides this service to people of all ages, religions, cultures, sexual orientation, ability and socio-economic group. A confidential telephone interpreting service can be used if you prefer to speak in your own language.

The website contains information about what constitutes sexual assault and counselling and crisis services that are offered. There is a publications page which shows the free pamphlets available and education and training links.
