    The UM Counseling Center’s Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) is seeking dedicated, warm, and empathic faculty, staff, and graduate student volunteers to serve as advocates during the 2014 calendar year.

    SART is often the first line of response for UM students who have been sexually assaulted, molested, or battered, and has supported sexual assault survivors and concerned others since 1992.

    Advocates provide hotline callers with much-needed emotional support, information, and referrals, in addition to help accessing resources when appropriate. They receive comprehensive training in taking calls from students in a variety of sexual assault-related situations, orientation to UM’s varied resources for those who have been sexually victimized, and ongoing support from licensed mental health professionals at the Counseling Center.

    If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity, contact Carolyn Eberhardt or Audrey Cleary at the Counseling Center at 305-284-5511.
