It is a group that meets with each other 10 hours a week for 10 weeks to promote leadership in the community for survivors of interpersonal violence such as domestic violence, sexual assault, elder abuse, child abuse, and human trafficking.

Why become a community fellow?

This program is a great way for you to develop your leadership potential by identifying skills in advocacy, training & events, project coordination, or technology.
