2008 Volunteer Advocate Training Begins in October!

SAVI is looking for compassionate women and men to advocate for survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence. After completing the 40 hours of training (see dates below), you will be on-call one shift a month to provide survivors with emotional support and information to help them navigate medical and legal procedures following an assault. Advocates must live in Queens or Manhattan.

No previous experience is necessary. Bilingual/bicultural women and men are encouraged to apply. Join our team of volunteers and work towards stopping violence. We look forward to hearing from you.

We will be interviewing prospective candidates in August and September. Please call (212) 423-2140 or e-mail our staff at lauren.moran@mssm.edu
