A questionnaire designed to assess how rape‐related services are delivered was mailed to directors of 34 federally funded comprehensive Commmunity Mental Health Centers (CMHCs) in Missouri and Illinois. Responses were received from 18 CMHCs. Results indicated that rape‐related services were offered by approximately three‐quarters of the respondents, who reported delivering primarily clinical services.
