The UM Counseling Center’s Sexual Assault Resource Team (SART) is seeking dedicated, warm, and empathic faculty, staff, and graduate student volunteers to serve as advocates during the 2015 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.
As an advocate, you will provide hotline callers with much-needed emotional support and referrals as well as information on how to access resources. Advocates will be trained to take calls from students in a variety of sexual assault-related situations, learn about various resources available to those who have been sexually victimized, and receive support from licensed mental health professionals at the Counseling Center. If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity, please contact Carolyn Eberhardt or Audrey Cleary at the Counseling Center at 305-284-5511, or email them at [email protected] or [email protected].
