STAR Provides Training & Support for Helpers in a Variety of Professions
Survivors and victims of sexual violence are around us more than we know. If and when a person chooses to discuss his/her experiences, disclose to a medical provider, or confide in an employer it can be an anxiety producing situation for everyone.
With a little training and discussion you, your staff, and organization can be prepared for a crisis or disclosure. STAR provides 24 hour support for helpers in a variety of professions including medical, education, social services, and law enforcement. A quick phone call to our crisis line can give you to information you need to provide appropriate options for the survivor with which you are working.
