The Program for Aid to Victims of Sexual Assault’s fall training dates are set and the organization is looking for people of all ages and from all walks of life to become sexual assault advocates. Advocates work on the crisis line and advocate for sexual assault survivors at area hospitals during their forensic exams. Dates for the 40-hour training and volunteer applications can be obtained at pavsa.org. Call Christy with questions at 218-726-1442.

A thousand thanks to those who are able to do this important job!!!
I would be interested in helping out. When I talked to people at PAVSA to volunteer computer expertise before, though, they seemed to hate me, possibly because I mail. Are men welcome?
I’m sorry you felt that way. Men are welcome to go through our 40 hour training and become sexual assault volunteers and we encourage this. Feel free to call me if you are still willing to volunteer computer expertise!-Christy
