In recognition of the annual 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence, we’re offering $5 Elevate training throughout December. The $5 will contribute to light refreshments during the training.

This 4-hour professional development workshop is for anyone looking to increase their knowledge and skills when supporting people who have experienced sexual harm. It ensures a cohesive understanding of the issue before exploring strategies to support victim survivors.
