Not only am I the executive director of SARA, I am also a sexual assault survivor. I know the impact that caring advocates and long-term counseling has on healing. I also know that through education and bystander training, sexual assault can be prevented. This year, I am walking to raise money for the lifesaving work that SARA does in our communities. By supporting my Walk for SARA, you will help survivors access hope and healing during this crisis and beyond.How you impact a survivors life with your gift: You ensure there is access to hope through a 24-hour on-call advocate when survivors need one the most, over the phone and still on-site in critical cases. You provide opportunities for survivors to heal through teletherapy when in-person counseling is not possible.You enable prevention specialists to train schools, faith communities, and businesses remotely so they can work to prevent sexual assault from happening in the first place.
