Last week, NOVA Victim Advocates Alyssa Kuryluk and Karen Matthews traveled to Washington D.C. to represent NOVA at the 2026 National Sexual Assault Conference!
Bringing together more than 1,000 advocates, educators, service providers, and other allied professionals, the conference is an opportunity to learn, connect, and strengthen the work being done to end sexual violence.
This year’s theme, “United in Purpose, Committed to Action,” speaks to what drives NOVA every day: turning knowledge and collaboration into meaningful action that supports survivors, strengthens our community, and moves us closer to a world free from sexual violence.
We’re proud to have Alyssa and Karen representing NOVA and bringing new ideas, connections, and inspiration back to our team and the communities we serve. 🧡
