THIS IS NOT A "SIGN UP WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE IT" VOLUNTEER ROLE.

Our Sexual Assault Victim Advocates provide 24/7 coverage across Brevard County.

Volunteers commit to 6+ hour on-call shifts and must be prepared to respond to hospitals or our exam center when called.

It's a significant commitment.

And that's exactly why it makes a significant difference.

If you have the compassion, dependability and emotional strength to stand beside a survivor when they need someone most, we want to meet you. Friday, September 4th at 5:30pm at our Melbourne location.

WHAT DOES A VOLUNTEER SEXUAL ASSAULT VICTIM ADVOCATE DO?

You don't investigate.
You don't interrogate.
You don't have to "fix" what happened.

You show up.

💜 Provide emotional support
💜 Accompany survivors during forensic exams
💜 Help explain available resources
💜 Provide referrals for follow-up services
💜 Be a calm, compassionate presence during an overwhelming experience

Sometimes being there is the most powerful thing you can do.

Join our next info session, Friday, SEPTEMBER 4th at 5:30 pm - 7pm
1425 Aurora Rd., Melbourne, FL 32935

COULD YOU BE THE ONE?

Someone walks into a hospital after experiencing sexual assault.

They're scared.
They're overwhelmed.
They don't know what happens next.

Then you arrive.

You sit beside them.
You listen.
You hold their hand.
You remind them they're not alone.

We're looking for Empathetic Warriors.

Become a Sexual Assault Victim Advocate Volunteer with the Women's Center of Brevard.

Join us Friday, September 4th at 5:30 pm at the Melbourne Office for more information.
