They will be state certified to serve as sexual assault crisis counselors on our 24/7 hotline.
The cost of this training is $85, though no one will be turned away for inability to pay.
Training topics include:
History of the anti-sexual violence movement, the sexual violence continuum, child sexual abuse, rape culture, male survivors, mandated reporting, medical, police, and legal procedures, survivors’ rights, empowerment, impact of trauma, crisis intervention, and much more!
