Survivors Rising Announces 2018 Speakers Bureau Opportunities

Survivors Rising (survivorsrising.org) has begun scheduling Speakers Bureau presentations and training sessions for 2018, and has also extended the opportunity to join the collective.

Survivors Rising’s Speakers Bureau is a collective of individuals impacted by sex trafficking, sexual exploitation, dating/domestic violence, sexual violence and stalking who have chosen to share their experience of violence and hope to educate the public, create social change, promote awareness of the prevalence and harm of violence and trauma, train service providers, impact policy and legislation and assist in preventing violence in our communities.

Presentations by survivors are available for training, conferences, awareness campaigns, panel discussions, brown bag lunches, vigils and other speaking engagements. Survivors Rising also provides training and workshops regarding sex trafficking, sexual exploitation, dating/domestic violence, sexual violence and stalking. Workshops include survivor experience, data and research, indicators and information on identifying victims/survivors or offenders, available resources for victims/survivors, and suggestions on how to help victims/survivors.

If you are interested in scheduling a training or presentation, or if you are interested in becoming a member of the Speakers Bureau to share your own story please contact Kim at kimsurvivorsrising@gmail.com. You can find out more about Survivors Rising online at survivorsrising.org.
