Advocates are given crisis intervention training and can refer survivors to appropriate resources of support on campus and in the community.

Advocates offer callers confidential and anonymous support while providing crisis counseling, and  connecting them to the Women’s Center staff advocates and emergency medical services.  Topics in this 25 hour training include: medical advocacy, suicide assessment, active listening, LGBTQ community considerations, sexual violence, relationship violence, and stalking.

We are also willing to work with people who have minor schedule conflicts.
