You may have heard about survivor advocacy but what does an advocate do for someone who has experienced power-based personal violence? Join Chloe Dauer (CSPA Practicum Student) and Veronica Jones (Interim Director of Health Promotion and Well-Being) in honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month. They explore the role of an advocate in supporting a survivor, how someone can become an advocate regardless of their field, and how to prevent burnout in a helping field.
