Advocacy Training

Learn about domestic violence and sexual assault. Support survivors and develop skills to strengthen our communities. Meet with others to end gender-based violence. All violence is preventable; come learn how to make our communities safer.

Training is a requirement for most volunteer duties and all new AWARE employees. Participants will receive an overview of AWARE’s intervention and prevention services. We will explore the necessity of community coordination and trauma-informed services to end violence. Email Janna Auger at jannaa@awareak.org for more information
