The Sexual Assault Resource Agency (SARA) is seeking compassionate, empathetic people to work as Emergency Room Advocates for survivors of sexual violence. ERAs provide support and crisis intervention to survivors at the hospital emergency room or police department after office hours and on weekends. Emergency room calls may range from 2-6 hours. 

 

SARA provides 24-hour support to survivors of sexual violence as well as nonoffending family and friends. This includes survivors of all ages and genders. Advocates stay with the survivor throughout the forensic/medical exam if the survivor wishes. Advocates provide active listening, support, referrals, and information to the survivor and any friends or family also present. This is not a counseling or therapeutic position. Strong professional boundaries and an understanding of the limits of one’s competence and role are essential.
