Welcome!

Monsoon was formed in 2003 as a culturally specific advocacy group under the aegis of the Iowa Coalition Against Sexual Assault. The group aims to provide services to ethnic Asian victims and survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault in Iowa, a community that has failed to receive adequate institutional response.
